Avatar f tn Hi Gwendolyn, The numbness and sharp,stabbing pain in your legs are actually part of the symptoms of multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis is a nervous system disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. It damages the myelin sheath, the material that surrounds and protects the nerve cells. This damage slows down or blocks messages between the brain and the body, leading to the symptoms of MS.
