Does this happen to anyone else (Medical question)?

[Anonymous]

So for a while I noticed that my feet are tingling, so much that it is to the point of pain. Lately it has moved up my legs. Does this happen to anyone else? What should I do?

i experience the same (comment what i should do)

not sure what it is

i've heard of it before

Sounds like poor circulation. Try doing some foot and leg exercises. If you are a smoker, nicotine is a vasoconstrictor, which can decrease peripheral circulation significantly. If you are often cold and this happens then that can also be the reason why. Press on your toe nail to see how fast your venous return is.. when you press on it the nail bed should blanch and when you let go blood should again flood the veins, this should happen in less than 3 seconds. Its the same with your finger nails. The tingling if it is like the pins and needles after sitting on your legs for too long, is due to ischemia to the tissues, they aren't getting enough oxygen. If its not going away, go and see your doctor because its a symptom of something, and it could be that there is a more serious underlying pathology.

you are gonna have to elaborate... how long is a while? Is it non stop tingling or does it come and go?

Do you mean pins and needles? Everybody gets that if the circulations is cut off for a while and then the blood starts to flow again. It cause that tingly sensation and can be slightly painful. It will wear off though and there is nothing to worry about.

I found this happened to me when I had bad ergonomics. Elevating my legs under my desk, and eventually a standing desk.

Get some stretching done during the day, girl. It'll fix you right up.

You need to go see a doctor. That can be a sign of poor circularion, nerve damage, or a ton of other issues.

sounds like restless leg syndrome, it begins in the feet then goes up the leg... they have vitamins for that or creams i believe...

but if you're unsure, ask your doctor.

Does it feel like pins and needles?

Sounds more like a question for diagnosis. com
