What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Legs?

My legs feels like pins and needles especially when I go to bed but the crazy thing it works it s way under my penis but when I get up it seems to go away. This started about three weeks ago I m 61 I m wondering if it has to do with my prostate or blood pressure or too much potassium in my system. just asking before I see my doctor.

Hi,

It is a nerve problem, check up with a neurologist, also check for minerals in your body. Pins and needles in your limbs are often because of a nerve weakness or a nerve strained.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
