NUMBINESS

< Back to Prolotherapy Article Index  

When people say they have numbness down arms or legs but still have a normal sense of touch, what they really have is numbiness. Referral numbiness is one of the main symptoms that tell us a person will respond to Prolotherapy. Numbiness is almost always from a ligament injury.

True numbness from a nerve getting pinched causes a sensation of numbness and a loss of feeling in the extremity. Almost everyone I see has normal sensation in their arms/hands/feet/and legs. Thus, they have numbiness and Prolotherapy has good chance of curing them of their pain!
