Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you have got probably diabetic neuropathy . Due to this you are feeling pin pricks and sever pain.You can take analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. If pain is not relieved by it then strong analgesic such as tramadol can be used.
