Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Tingling Sensation On Feet And Hands
Hello, Over the past 10-14 days I ve felt mildly dizzy, with occasional, brief tingling to the soles of my feet and palms of my hands... a jolt-like tingling that subsides within seconds. I ve not had ear surgery and am not sick... no sinus infection or allergies. I have a PCP visit on Wednesday. Any ideas/advice in the meantime? Thank you.

Hi,
Well, these are signs of certain neuropathic issues and this is most commonly seen in some metabolic disorders such as diabetes, of the most common causes of peripheral neuropathy, accounting for about 30% of cases. In diabetic neuropathy, tingling and other symptoms often first develop in both feet and go up the legs, followed by tingling and other symptoms that affect both hands and go up the arms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
