Tingling in hands

I have had tingling in my hands when I lay on either side, for at least a month. When I lay on my back it stops.

Now I have weakness on my left. Well the Left leg is hard to get going after a while, and then I will start to drag my toes on the left.

My left arm is weak at times and it's hard to even wash dishes or hold anything up. Now my lower back hurts. I also have a limp now.

I fell of my porch around Christmas and right knee was swollen. Fell on the right side. What could be the problem?

Hello,
Frankly, I'm not sure. But falls, weakness in the left arm and leg and tingling in the hands certainly calls for a good neurological examination.

I would start with your doctor, and ask to see a neurologist.
