Most people never experience tingling when sitting cross-legged for too long or fall asleep with his head crushed. This condition also occurs when pressure on the nerve that goes right. However, the numbness will go away when the pressure is not there anymore.
Pins can also be indicative of many diseases, such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, pinched nerves, impaired blood flow in the peripheral blood vessels, and blood disorders. There are times when those who have not known to have diabetes, tingling may be an early symptom of diabetes known.
Paresthesia or numbness is often a symptom of chronic neurological disease or traumatic nerve damage. The cause is a disorder that affects the central nervous system such as stroke and mini stroke, multiple sclerosis, transverse myelitis, and encephalitis.
Tumors and vascular lesions of the brain or spinal pressure can also cause paresthesia. Neurological syndromes such as carpal channel syndrome (CTS) can damage the peripheral nerves and cause paresthesia accompanied by pain.
Here are a number of diseases characterized by symptoms of tingling.
1. Diabetes mellitus (DM)
In patients with DM, tingling is a symptom of damage to blood vessels. As a result, blood flow in the nerve endings is reduced. This condition can be overcome by controlling blood sugar levels closely, also taking drugs such as gabapentin, vitamin B1 and B12.
2. Stroke
Tingling can be a sign of a mild stroke. Usually caused by blockages in blood vessels in the brain, resulting in damage to local nerves. Other symptoms that occur: numbness half body, half body paralyzed, blind one eye, difficulty speaking, dizziness, double vision and blurred.

3. Heart disease
Tingling neuropathy is not only due to pressure, but because of cardiac complications with her nerves. In patients undergoing cardiac valve surgery installation, there are blood clots that stick. Clot that can be carried by the flow of blood to the brain, causing cerebral embolic.
If the blockage in the brain regions that regulate the sensory system, the patient will feel a tingling right. If the local governing motor system is also affected, the tingling will be accompanied by paralysis.
4. Infections of the spine
This causes the body from the navel downwards can not be moved. Patients could not control urination. Bowel movement was difficult. This disease called myelitis (inflammation of the spinal cord). Level of recovery depends on the damage. Can recover some, but there is also a paraplegic.
5. Rheumatism
This disease can cause tingling or feeling thick. In this case due to a pinched nerve at the hinge joints, such as the wrist joint, change shape. Tingling symptoms usually disappear when cured rheumatism.
6. Spasmofilia (tetani)
