What Causes Pain,itching And Numbness On Legs?

I am having rerstless night with attacks of itching numbness an burning pain of both my legs. The curious thing is that it does not happen during the day,. but about half an hour from going to bed t night. Recent MRI indicates that arthritis might be the cause. I know arthritis pain what it is like because I have it in my both hands. The sensation in my legs is more a burning pain. Thanks if you can give me some advioce.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hello,
I have studied your case. I think you are having neurology problems in your body. it can be due to these reasons.
1.Low serum B 12 estimation.
2.Nerve compression in the spine.
I would recommend you to get your serum B 12 estimation and MRI of the spine. If there is low serum B 12 than you should start taking Pregabalin M one daily. Also take calcium and vitamin D 3 daily.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
