yeah I know what you mean! Its like trying to explain the difference between dizzyness and vertigo to anyone, even a dr., who doesn't have it!
If it gets worse get it checked.
I would describe this when it happens as a burn feeling and it is point specific. What is strange is I feel these things but the sensations in my hands and feet are reduced by numbness and if you try to explain that to someone who dose not understand it sounds like a complete contradiction.
strange!!

I have the pins and needles too, but this is different! Its very point specific. Yeah I figured it was nerves.... they have a tendancy to do very strange things! Lol!
I get twitching or tics in some areas (mostly hands and feet) and also the sting thing you refer to it feel like it is pins and needles but much more intense than the normal P&N I have.
Any way it sounds nerve related.
