What Causes Tingling And Numbing Sensation In Hands And Feet?

I have a 12 year old granddaughter who is experiencing tingling and numbness in the feet and hands and knees, about every 2 to 4 hours her doctor said it was a viral infection, but she is miserable and needs more than just to wait and see if it gets better.
