What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Upper Legs?
For several months I have been waking up at night from a radiating, tingling sensation in both of my upper legs and midriff. The feeling wakes me up and slowly subsides when I move into a different position. I had lower back surgery 7 year years ago for a herniated disc and have some nerve damage ( numbness and pain) in the front of my left leg. This sensation however is different than what I have experienced before. I have been having some left lower back pains but the tingling only occurs at night. Could it be from my previous injury?
