My legs feeling numb for a while
Hello doctor, I’m 20 years old and lately i felt a little bit numb on the certain parts of my legs and hands but it only last long for a few seconds but it happens everyday. I’m not sure how to say it either it feels like numbness, prickling, or tingling. It happens only when i sit or when i’m lying down. I’m also taking some medications due to the matter that builds red blood cells deficiency. So, is the feeling is due to the medications because i took the medicines on and off. The medicines is something related to iron tablets.
