Natural Remedies for Paresthesia (Pins and Needles) of Hands and Feet
Modified on Jul 31, 2022
Paresthesia, or tingling of the feet and other appendages, is closely related to peripheral neuropathy, weakness, and pain caused by nerve damage. Peripheral neuropathy is the general term that suggests or indicates a disruption in the peripheral nerves, while paresthesia is a subset of this larger term that indicates numbness and tingling of the feet.
Paresthesia is often described as the “pins and needles” feeling in the feet; however, it can occur in other parts of the body. This temporary numbness can be felt after sitting in the same position or sleeping for a long period of time, but chronic paresthesia typically occurs over a longer period of time. The symptoms of the condition can be described in a number of ways, including tingling, numbness, itching, or even burning.
Additional pain and symptoms are typically dependent upon the location of the affected body part as well as the underlying cause of the paresthesia.
