What Causes Pricking Sensation On The Body And Eye Twitching?
hi my name is machala i am 23 i suffer from anxiety so i assumed that may be why i have been getting pins and needles all over my body and over the last day and a half my eye has been twitching uncontrollably. just wondering if this could be much more than my anxiety?
Twitching of eyelids and frequent pins and needles sensation in the body is generally due to deficiency vitamins like B6 and B12. It can also occur in diabetes. Please take vitamin supplements like tab meganeuron or 2B12 capsules twice daily for 4 to 6 weeks.
You can also go for injectable vitamin B12 injection after confirming it's deficiency by a blood test. Eat green vegetables, poultry, milk and milk products, fresh fruits, nuts regularly to prevent vitamin deficiency. Do moderate exercise regularly for efficient blood circulation. You can also screen yourself for diabetes by doing blood sugar levels. Please rule out common causes for your symptoms before attributing it to anxiety disorder.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Manisha Roy
