Get Tickling And Turning Sensation After Lying For Sleep. What Could It Be?

Once a week or sometime more, I go to bed with my wife. I'm sleepy, nodding off on the couch, so we move to the bed. However when I lay down in me bed I feel like my insides are turning and almost a ticking and turning sensation occurs. It's a very uneasy feeling as if some if tickling me. I'm not laughing, but I feel the need writhe and turn as if trying stop someone from ticketing me. I then have about 20 seconds of no writhing and then it comes right back. I've it it for 4 hours now. Please help

Hello,

I have studied your case.
Due to compression of this nerve root there is tingling numbness associated with it.

For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care
