HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Abnormal sensations are most commonly related to issues with the nervous system, most usually peripheral neuropathy.
There are different possible causes such as: (1) vitamin b12 or folate deficiency
(2)exposure to toxins
(3)liver or kidney disease
(4)some autoimmune conditions
(5)stroke, multiple sclerosis and other neurological conditions
(6)side effect of medication
(7)idiopathic- cause not known
I hope this helps
