What Can Cause Prickly Sensations In The Upper Body?

Hi doctor, For the past three days I ve had strong prickly sensations mostly all over my upper body, but prevalently in the lungs area. It s scaring the hell out of me. I m planning on going to see my doctor on Monday. Any thoughts on what it might be?

Hi,

Your symptoms could be from underlying respiratory or cardiac cause. I suggest you investigate with a chest X-ray and EKG for primary work up. According to the cause, specific treatment is given. You can consult a physician for auscultation and examination.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
