Brief Answer:
Few causes among ones listed can cause tingling palms during urination

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX whitelaw,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

This symptoms is known as parasthesia and there are many probable causes and since it happens rarely and only during urination, therefore it is unlikely to be a serious problem.

1. The first probable cause is a nerve in the neck spine which might get pinched due to your neck position and therefore the nerve stimulation is causing tingling in the palms.

2. The second probable cause might be anxiety and hyperventilation. This is a common cause and usually happens when the person is tensed.

3. Third in the list is neuropathy which is a condition associated with existing nerve problems and is seen in patients with conditions like diabetes, thyroid conditions, nutritional deficiency state, post infection, in people who regularly take certain medicines and in drug abusers and this happens from damage to nerves. This is suspected in those with frequent symptoms and unlikely if you fell the tingling of palms during urination rarely.

Please get investigated clinically if you feel the symptoms are increasing in frequency and intensity.

Hope your query is answered.
Please do write back if you have nay doubts.
