Acroparesthesia

/ˌækroʊˌpærəsˈθiːʒə/ noun

Definition

A tingling, pins-and-needles sensation affecting the extremities, especially the hands and feet; abnormal sensations in the extremities.

Etymology

From Greek 'akron' (extremity), 'para-' (beside, abnormal), and 'aesthesia' (sensation). Together it means 'abnormal sensation of the extremities.'

Kelly Says

When your foot 'falls asleep,' that's acroparesthesia—it's actually a really common symptom doctors hear about, and the name perfectly describes that weird 'pins and needles' feeling.
