Dr. Donald Colantino answered

Neurologist: Numbness, pins and needles, tingling, pain and weakness are more definite symptoms indicating pathology of the nervous system. Your symptom is vague and nonspecific at this time. However if it persists or intensifies, I recommend that you be evaluated by a neurologist. Appropriate testing will be done.
