What Causes Tingling Feet And Legs And Painful Joints?
Hello. I had glandular fever last Nov/Dec time and I have been left with tingling feet legs hands arms finger tips. Mainly my left side. I had blood tests in February and September this year to rule out diabetes anemia, full blood count and liver kidney function and thyroid. Both sets came back normal. I slipped a disk in lower back in June and I am still having some physio as it is still not 100%. My doctors and physio have said that the tingling and aching sometimes painful joints are a result of the above. I still worry. Thank you. Sarah

Yes,
The tingling, aching and painful joints are due to slipped disc in low back. It will take some time to recede as a slipped disc can't be brought back to its normal position conservatively. However medication and Physiotherapy will help in relief of symptoms but you need to have patience.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
