Pins And Needles Pain On The Right Side Of The Body. History Of Kidney Infection. Are These Related?

Hello, I am experiencing tingly pins & needle feelings down the right of my body. It s affecting from the back of my head and ear, runs down my arm , and through my back / shoulder area, my torso, and now my leg and foot . I first noticed it in my hand. It s been going on for a good 2 weeks now. What should I do? I was previously having some issues with a kidney infection , and I wasn t sure if that could be related?

Hi
Welcome to HCM.
The DESCRIPTION does not fit with kidney related condition.
It is most likely of neurological origin.
A neurologist consult is the next best step.
Get well soon.
