		Paresthesia or paraesthesia (in British English) is a sensation of tingling, pricking, or numbness of a person's skin with no apparent long-term physical effect, more generally known as the feeling of pins and needles or of a limb being "asleep" (but not directly related to the phenomenon of sleep).
		Another cause of paresthesia, however, may be direct damage to the nerves themselves, or neuropathy, which can stem from injury or infection such as Lyme disease, or which may be indicative of a current neurological disorder.
		Paresthesiae of the mouth, hands, and feet are common, transient symptoms of the related conditions of hyperventilation syndrome and panic attacks.

	Paresthesia (paraesthesia)
		Paresthesia (paraesthesia) is a sensation of tingling, pricking, or numbness of the skin with no apparent physical cause, more generally known as the feeling of pins and needles.
		Transient paresthesia is usually caused by inadvertent pressure on a superficial nerve, and disappears gradually as the pressure is relieved.
		- Paresthesias are caused by disturbances in the function of neurons in the sensory pathway.

		Paresthesia refers to a burning or prickling sensation that is usually felt in the hands, arms, legs, or feet, but can also occur in other parts of the body.
		Chronic paresthesia is often a symptom of an underlying neurological disease or traumatic nerve damage.
		Paresthesia can be caused by disorders affecting the central nervous system, such as stroke and transient ischemic attacks (mini-strokes), multiple sclerosis, transverse myelitis, and encephalitis.

	Parasthesia / Paresthesia
		Paresthesia mostly occurs after third molar, or wisdom tooth, extractions as the roots of the bottom wisdom teeth are close to the inferior alveolar nerve canal in the mandibular (lower) jaw.
		Temporary paresthesia is usually described as a tingling sensation and occurs when pressure is placed on a nerve.
		Paresthesia in the mouth generally feels like a tooth is numbed with anesthetic, however, the numbness doesn't go away after a few hours and persists for days, weeks, or even months.

	Wisdom tooth extractions: Complications and risks.
		The sensation of paresthesia can be similar to that feeling you have when a dentist uses an anesthetic to "numb up" a tooth, only instead of disappearing in a few hours the numbness persists.
		Paresthesia is typically a "sensory" as opposed to a "motor" phenomenon.
		A hope of avoiding the complication of paresthesia is one reason why dentists suggest that wisdom teeth be removed when a patient is "young." As humans age on through their twenties the roots of their wisdom teeth continue to form and develop, making these teeth more difficult to extract without disturbing surrounding tissues (like nerves).

		Subsequent oral surgeons confirmed that the paresthesia was limited to the patient’s tongue and lingual gingiva and opined that the paresthesia was a direct result of the surgical procedure to remove the third molars.
		He also determined that the paresthesia was less profound on the patient’s right side and that there was greater potential for eventual recovery on that side.
		It was felt that the dentist was fortunate and perhaps skillful in that he avoided sustaining an inferior alveolar paresthesia on either side.

		Paresthesia was the main reason patients chose to withdraw from the clinical trials.
		In one major study, although the overall incidence rate of topiramate-associated paresthesia across all doses was 47% among 1135 patients, only 7% of all patients discontinued due to this side effect.
		The incidence was higher in patients receiving 100 mg of topiramate than in those receiving 50 mg, but it was not higher in the 200 mg compared to the 100 mg group.

	HAND PARESTHESIA IN SUBACROMIAL IMPINGMENT SYNDROME
		It seems that there is an association between shoulder impingement syndrome and hand paresthesia, which is strongly associated with the pain of impingement.
		In the majority of patients, the paresthesia symptoms were relieved after treatment of the impingement with arthroscopic subacromial decompression only.
		The cause of these paresthesias could not be explained by the nerve conduction studies and is subject for further studies.

	Chronic, Intractable Pain (Site not responding. Last check: )
		During a period of 1-2 weeks this electrode is connected percutaneously to an external, programmable pulse generator to test whether the patient perceives paresthesia in the pain area and significant analgesia.
		Implantation of the IPG or RF receiver in the abdomal wall and tunneling of a connecting cable to the electrode are performed under short-lasting general anesthesia or sedation.
		Therefore, controlling the electrode placement by the patient’s perception of paresthesia distribution at perioperative stimulation is of high importance for a satisfactory result.
