Brief Answer:
Suggestive of paresthesias.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I have noted your symptoms and they are known as paresthesias. These feelings indicate a mild disease of peripheral nerves in legs, which could be related to mechanical pressure on nerves, diabetes mellitus, vitamin B 12 deficiency, etc.

There is no need to worry as this can be well treated with medications such as pregabalin capsules.

Best wishes,

Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology) XXXXXXX Consultant Neurologist
