Strange numb, deadish, heavy sensations on the left side?
I notice on days where I drink a coffee or do too much walking around, I will have digestive issues due to chronic gastritis. Other things happen as well though. It could be intense gas pain putting pressure on certain nerves, but I always noticed a sort of numb, almost dead feeling in my lower back on the left side only, starting from right around my kidney area. The feeling is deep (not just on the surface) and the same sensation wraps around my left flank around to my stomach/intestine areas.
I will sometimes even feel this pressure even spread down into my testicles and anus areas on the left side only as well? Even now as I type I'm feeling this pressure in all these areas and nerve sensations in my left toes and sometimes my left elbow and left hand? Could this be sciatica as well?
I have had this for years now and so far, I have only been diagnosed with chronic gastritis (very minor case) and a slightly enlarged prostate.
I may visit a doctor in the near future, but I need to save more money. Is there anyone on here that can relate to any of these symptoms or is what I'm describing?
