Hi.

Do you also experience these symptoms when sitting? Are the symptoms more noticeable or severe during the night? Do you have a strong urge to move your feet and legs when you experience the tingling sensations? Do the symptoms resolve with movement of the legs and feet?

It could be possible that you might be suffering from restless leg syndrome (RLS), the symptoms of which are typically worse while sitting or lying down and get better when the person moves around.

It is advisable for you to consult a neurologist who can evaluate your symptoms to determine or rule out the presence of restless leg syndrome.

Hope this helps.
