Pins And Needles/Itchy Skin

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
Ireland, IN

Does anyone else suffer with pins and needles as a symptom of their RA? Lately I can’t even cross my legs without getting pins and needles in my feet. Often get them in my hands too. Also, my skin is often quite itchy? Just wondering if others experience this.

Thanks

Yes going through that now. Mine feel like pin pricks, stings and itchy sometimes. I hate it but don’t know what to do about it. Mine is all over sometimes. Good luck.

Ava,
Yes I have the pins and needles in my feet from neuropathy. I have nerve damage in my arm and hand so that causes pins and needles. Some times I get that it and it's miserable. It's not all the time though for me.
