Numbness in my legs??

Question

Lately I have noticed that when I lay or sit on one side, the other side goes numb. I have heard of this happening during a pregnancy, but I am not pregnant and I am not all that heavy either (I usually hover around 125-130). Does anyone else experience this? Once I adjust I get the feeling back for a bit before it goes numb again, and the only time I feel it is when I’m sitting or laying down. This may be a bit of a silly question but it happens every night when I try to sleep and I can’t sleep on my back or stomach so i was wondering for those who have, how you dealt with it comfort-wise?

Answer

Have you spoken to your doctor about this love? It's probably nothing but it could be a sign of an issue. Might be worth mentioning to be on the safe side.

Answer

So you lose feeling when the circulation is reduced or lost. The nerves that are responsible for ‘feeling’ need a good supply of oxygen from a good blood supply; they are cells, and all cells in your body need oxygen or they will die. It could be normal- when you cross your logs or lie on one side you apply more pressure to the leg and the blood flow is restricted- but if it is occurring frequently and you don’t have to lie down or cross your legs for long to lose feeling, it might be worth popping to the doctors to check your blood pressure and circulation.
