Warning Signs Of Arachnoiditis

Tingling And Numbness In The Legs

Compression of the spinal cord and nerves due to inflammation of the arachnoid can result in tingling and numbness in the legs. Sensations may vary from individual to individual. However, many patients have reported the tingling experienced with arachnoiditis is similar to the feeling of insects crawling on the skin or water trickling down the leg. Nerve stimulation treatment has been found to be very beneficial in restoring feeling to legs and reducing the uncomfortable feeling of tingling. Other treatments include exercise therapy to promote blood flow to aid in the reduction of inflammation, as well as water therapy.
