Burning Tingling Sensation In My Legs. Shoulder And Head MRI Scan Came Normal. Reason?

Hi For 5 months now every day I have had burning tingling sensation in my legs. The bottom half more so than the top. Occasionally I get shooting pains up my legs too. I find it hard to walk now and this is starting to really depress me I feel like my life has dramatically changed I physically cannot do anything anymore. Can you suggest what it could be? I had a shoulder and head MRI scan and there was no abnormalities.

Hello,
Thanks for writing in.
Considering your head and Shoulder MRI scans normal, you are now having shooting pains in your leg.
There can be multiple causes for your shooting pain in your legs.
The causes can be anything from vascular insufficiency, varicose veins to nerve root compression in your lumbar spine.
I suppose you could get yourself examined by an orthopedic surgeon who will advise you further tests after doing clinical examination.
Hope this helps.
