I keep getting pins and needle sensation in my back sides chest and arms and sometimes my face. Along with the pins and needles sensation it feels like im being shocked?! It comes and goes but when its here it is very painful? What could this be? Should I see my doctor?
Hello dear, thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion we should first rule out cardiac cause for your symptoms. So better to get done ECG first. If ECG is normal then no need to worry much for cardiac cause. Vitamin B12 deficiency can also cause pins and needle sensation in the body. So get done serum vitamin B 12 level and if it is deficient then start supplement. So better to consult your doctor and discuss all these possible causes and start appropriate treatment.
