Hello,
Tingling in upper limbs is related to neurological compression at cervical spine levels. Numbness in feet is combined effects of L-S spine disc compression with restless leg syndrome. Treatment is supportive with physiotherapy and Gabapentin type molecules.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel
