Recently I have been experiencing tingling in my hands and now my feet while lying in bed trying to sleep. I had a sharp pain in my left foot last night that woke me suddenly form my sleep. It was quite uncomfortable and painful. I first thought it may of been a pinched nerve but my symptoms subside during the day. any thoughts?
Hi, Thanks for writing in. It appears that there might be a condition involving the nervous system in your body. The above symptoms like numbness and tingling are associated with conditions of nerves affected in various regions. This can be due to an acute cause or due to chronic problems like neuropathy associated with diabetes or autoimmune disorders. History of any other medical conditions and medications that you are taking is important. Vitamin deficiency states can also appear as non-specific symptoms as described by you. Please consult a neurologist and get a complete neurological examination done. Investigations like MRI scan brain and spinal cord might also be required for you.
