There are many: Possible causes. Nutritional deficiency, side effects of medication, small nerve fiber disease, nerve compression, low back issues, some systemic diseases like diabetes can cause this as well. I would recommend you see a doctor to help differentiate which of the above it can be.

Possible neuropathy: Neuropathy can happen as a result of trauma, or nerve damage due to the consumption of alcohol or certain medications. Symptoms can range from a numbness and tingling sensation, possibly a burning sensation, to an uncomfortable painful sensation of the extremities. Get evaluated by a professional to determine the exact cause in order to get the appropriate treatment.
