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. A tumor or vascular lesion pressed up against the brain or spinal cord can also cause paresthesia. Treatment. Repositioning yourself to release pressure on the nerve may be enough to relieve any tingling or numbness that you're experiencing. Over-the-counter (OTC) pain medication or a cold compress can also be used to relieve any temporary or infrequent pain caused by paresthesia. Physiotherapy treatment. Due to low blood circulation, physiotherapy has proved to be effective in treating paresthesia. Nerve gliding exercises are used extensively in treating numbness and tingling of the hands. It prevents nerve damage by facilitating circulation and nerve movement. Medication treatment. For severe paresthesia, opium derivatives like Codeine are prescribed. Some medications offered depend on the underlying cause and can include immunosuppressants like Prednisone, intravenous gamma globulin (IVIG), anticonvulsants such as Gabapentin and antiviral medications (if paresthesias is due to shingles).
