A member asked:
I have a weird pulling sensation in my left leg and cannot sleep. its really bad either when i lay down or sit cross legged. could this be related to?

Circulation or nerve: Could be related to a circulation issue or nerve irritation. Depends on exactly what sensations you are feeling. Pulling may be just that you're stretching out a tendon. Nerve pain is usually described as shooting, electrical pain. Poor circulation causes a prickling feeling and numbness. Hope this helps
