What Causes Tingling Sensation In Lower Leg?
Yesterday I would feel as if something was on my leg or someone was touching me but there wasn t anything there. Today I m having some tingling in my left leg just below my knee, on my chin area. There isn t any pain, just the tingling sensation and it s driving me crazy. Any thoughts what could be going on?

Hi
A tingling sensation could be caused by a metabolic problem, neurologic problem or just recovery from a local trauma at that site.I suggest you see a doctor and run a fasting blood sugar test, serum electrolytes test if the sensation continues.Also, you will need to know your BP value.If the tests reveals nothing, then you consult a neurologist.
Best regards
