Hi,
Thanks for choosing healthcaremagic for posting your query.
I'm Dr. Sudhir Kumar.
I have gone through your question in detail and understand your concern. Your denting on pressure indicate that you have some compromise in your heart and kindey function. You can get yourself investigate for that and other general cause. It is not a emergency situation but you should consult your doctor as early as possible. For pain you can take analgesic such as ibuprofen. Mecobalamine will be helpful in tingling.
Hope I have answered your query.
