I'm a 31 overweight female that feet and legs have started having a pond and needle sensation for the last couple of weeks. could that be serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
... Diet & Exercise.: Pins and needles sensations in one's feet could be from too much Weight Pressure on the feet due to being overweight or from something as significant as Diabetic Nerve Damage (Neuropathy). One should see a PCP to help but also begin a program of Smart Diet & Exercise to manage one's weight.
