Rash On Back Of Head, Pins And Needles In Hands And Feet. Are These Symptoms Of Anything?
Hello, I have a rash on the back on my head which I thought might be psoriasis . Also I was on a night out and all of a sudden I fainted which has never happened to me before! Also I get pins and needles in my hands and feet more than I usually do like it comes and goes through the day. Are these symptoms for anything? Thank you.

Hello.Probably the rash on the head has nothing to do with your pins and needles.This symptom, which if I am not wrong is commonly refereed to as peripheral neuropathy, which is a fore-runner/accompaniment of many diseases including diabetes mellitus and thyroid disorder.Please consult your doctor for a check-up.
