What Causes Tingling Sensation From The Thigh To The Ankle?
When I take a big sigh, there is a tingle , but more than a simple tingle that goes down the inner thigh to my ankle. It started with just above the ankel, now goes all the way down. I am possibly having vein ablation in a few weeks; the cardiologist said this sounds like a nerve problem, not anything to do with the veins. Do you have any ideas? I also have some arthritis in that leg. And it feels sometimes like it refuses to bend properly.

What Causes Tingling Sensation From The Thigh To The Ankle?
Hello, It may be due to nerve compression at lumbar spine. For further assessment you may require MRI back, nerve conduction studies after spine surgeon consultation. For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen. You may require tablet Pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation. Apply diclofenac gel or ointment locally. Do regular physical therapy Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further... Regards, Dr Shyam Kale Family and general physician
