Brief Answer:
Peripheral neuropathy

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
This type of sensation is felt in peripheral neuropathy.
It is a disorder of nerves producing abnormal sensations.
I treat such cases with tablet methylcobalamine daily for 3 months.
It is safe and gives good results.
You can try this in consultation with your doctor.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
