What Do Numbness And Tingling Sensation In The Legs Indicate?

Hi I have in the last 4 weeks had weird sensations in my legs. Best described as a numbish feeling and pins and needles. It comes and goes - I can still feel my legs completely but it feels weird. I am not diabetic (as far as I know) and have no diabetic symptoms. I have no pain. I am very constipated but have always suffered with this and so I would be surprised if this is due to my bowels. I have had a stressful few months but don t know if this can cause these symptoms.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As per your history, it may be peripheral neuropathy. You can take tablet Pregabalin after consultation. You may require EMG, NCV, MRI back after consultation. You can take syrup Duphalac after consultation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
