A member asked:

Does meningitis cause tingling in feet or hands?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes it can: Meningitis of various causes can cause tingling in hands and feet. Infectious agents that cause meningitis can also involve your peripheral nerves to cause these symptoms too. Herpes simplex, ebv or lyme disease can do that.
