Hi there! I know numbness is an MS thing. I’m trying to determine if what I’ve am experiencing comes from MS or something that needs a chiropractor. The numbness only happens when I’m walking around for more than twenty minutes. I’d love to hear your thoughts. BTW it just in my upper left leg.

Numbness

I have been experiencing numbness in just my ring ringer on my left hand. This is new however most of the problems I do have seem to be with my Left side. The finger feels like it’s numb from it being cold, but it’s not the reason. Anyone else have issues with just a single finger or toe?
