Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Feeling of numbness and tingling is quite common after electric shock. You can go for a nerve conduction study to check for any possible nerve damage. If symptoms persist, you have to consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Shinas Hussain
