hey it sounds like you could have nerve damage or a trapped nerve my friend, take yourself to the doctor and explain everything, request some tests to be carried out as this is not normal for someone of 20, i am the same age lol but i hope you feel better soon.

Sciatica could be the reason for the leg problems. Not terribly sure on the arm though.

Are you putting pressure on your left arm and your leg when this happens?  If not, I suggest you go as soon as possible to a doctor and get referred to a neurologist.
