What Are Burning Sensation In Heels With Tingling Hands And Legs Suggestive Of?
Hi Dr, My name is Rosa. I have been having sensations of burning heels while I m resting in bed and on few occasions have had tingling/numbness in the head, legs, arms and hands - like a feeling that I m about to pass out - it only lasts for a brief moment but has happened now on a few occasions. I am a bit concerned as there is a history of MND and MS in my family - my father had shy dragger syndrome, two cousins have MS and another cousin died of MND also. I m concerned this could be the showing signs of something like that
The symptoms of tingling in hands and legs are commonly related to peripheral neuropathy. Based on the fact that you have a heredity probability of MS, it should be excluded. So, I suggest to consult a neurologist and do a brain MRI for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
