I need some info regarding the constant numbness in lower leg. My right leg sometimes is so numbed and hurts that I’m almost unable to walk. I actually have some ugly looking veins in my lower right leg and it is especially numbed and sensitive during my periods. So what may have caused numbness in my lower leg and what could I do to treat it.

You need to get diagnosed as soon as possible that’s my advice for only that way you might get proper treatment. Who knows what might have caused numbness in your lower leg but I’m almost sure you are in serious health problem for these veins you have there and it tells me that this numbness has something to do with hormonal changes for you’ve mentioned it is even more numbed during your periods. I think that you should do x-ray test I think it’s called angiogram and this test might show any changes in your blood vessels such as vein inflammation that might be followed by a blood clot and if your leg is aching, swollen and reddish alike than it is sure sign of inflammation. If it is a blood clot somewhere there in your veins than you might be in real trouble for it actually blocks the blood to flow back to the heart. One of the causes might also be narrowing of arteries so your lower leg is in oxygen lack for that reason or the cause of numbness in lower leg might also be some injury at your leg muscles or so. But anyway no matter the cause I’m sure constant leg numbness demands medical care.
