Brief Answer:
Could be a sensory phenomenon or due to muscle spasms

Thanks for using the 'Ask A Doctor' service.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concern.

It is possible that you are having fine muscle spasms leading to such a sensation. It is also possible that your sensory nerves are being stimulated with or without a source (infective and/ non-infective).

You need to see a doctor. He would be able to examine and find out what is wrong. The examination would be needed in such a case and therefore I would suggest you visit a doctor for the clinical evaluation.

Feel free to write back.
