Multiple Sclerosis and Pinched Nerve
Multiple sclerosis [6] is a condition that occurs when your body’s immune system attacks the fatty myelin sheath around nerve fibers in your spine and brain. Tingling in the feet and hands is a common symptom of multiple sclerosis.
A pinched nerve occurs when there is excess pressure on a nerve from the surrounding tissues. Factors like injury, repetitive movements, and inflammatory conditions can cause a pinched nerve. A pinched nerve may also occur in many areas of the body and can affect the feet or hands, causing numbness, pain, or tingling. If a pinched nerve occurs in your lower spine, the sensation may radiate down the back of your leg and into your foot.
