Tingling in Legs

I am 28 years old and I have started walking to lose some weight but every time that I go walking for more than 15 minutes or jogging for more than 5 I  get this feeling in my legs that feels like I  have a thousand  bugs crawling up and down my legs. They start feeling really itchy. It is fairly uncomfortable and I was just wondering if you knew what this was or if there is something that I can do to stop this feeling. Should I see my doctor? Thank you.

Hi,

I would also suggest you to get your blood sugar levels checked to rule out diabetes.
You can start a B complex suppplement also and see if it helps.

This is a question that has plagued this message board for years.   Scroll down to  Light Tingling / Popping Sensation in Legs After Jogging, last commented on June 24 for lots of ideas of what MIGHT be causing this.   One likely cause seemingly  is RLS.
