Painful pins and needles..

BobbiPartridge

I am getting pins and needles in my feet when I sit down.... Like all the time. They can be painful and my feet go completely numb. I have never had it this often before or this severe ... Any ideas on why?

See a doctor. It may be a serious circulation problem.

Yes see a doctor pretty quick like. There isn't much that could cause that symptom that isn't serious.

Whenever you sit down? All the time? Are you wearing shoes? Definitely something to check with the doctor about

Yeh all time and no shoes.. I called my doctor and he said its a side effect of my current medication. Do I guess that's a relief even though it's uncomfortable!! Thank you for the help guys

Are you diabetic? That is one of the signs of Type 2 diabetes. nerve pain will only get worse, so I'd get that checked out soon.
