Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi.
Tingling sensations in limbs might be a manifestation of a serious underlying pathology, like sensory neuropathy due to a number of causes like nutritional deficiency, endocrinal disorders etc. Superficial lotion application might cause some soothing, but is unlikely to help much in case it has some organic cause.
I would suggest a visit to a qualified ohysian for detailed assessment and management accordingly.
For management of life stress, you might try some relaxation techniques, yoga and free hand exercises. If they donot help, you can get in touch with a psychiatrist.

Hope this helps
