Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Your symptoms of sharp electric shock like feeling in different areas is most likely due to nerve irritation resulting from electrolyte imbalance or vitamin deficiency or degenerative disc disease causing nerve compression in different areas.
You need to keep your body well hydrated with plenty of fresh fruit juices. Regular intake of rejuvenating fluids might help. Apart from the sports drinks which contain glucose and electrolytes you must have enough water alongwith.
Taking vitamin B complex supplements and methylcobalamin supplements for at least two weeks regularly will help in reducing your problem.
Pain in foot and tightness below ankle needs local examination by an Orthopaedician along with investigations like X-ray and MRI for proper diagnosis and further treatment.
Hope this answers your query effectively. In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
