Hi. I m a healthy 46 year old woman and this year I started experiencing a strange static feeling like static electricity on one area of my back. I am constantly pulling on my shirt thinking that my shirt is sticking to my back when in fact it is just my skin. It is always the same small area. no other symptoms.. what is this?????????????

Hello,
Probably, it is a small peripheric nerve that is pinched or compressed. I don't think it is a serious condition. If in doubt, get evaluated by your Doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
