Could Tingling And Aching Leg, Numb Joints With Pressure Be Due To Multiple Attacks Of Herpes Zoster?
I just played basketball for a short amount of time and a aching pain occurred in my leg. When I put pressure on my joints they fall asleep. I had a herpes zoster when I was younger and it appeared four more times in my adult life. Is the tingling due to the herpes zoster or multiple sclerosis in your opinion?

Hello,
I would not jump to MS but if you are concerned you should see a neurologist. It does not sound like herpes zoster because that should not cause joint pains with pressure. If rash develops see a doctor right away.
