Experiencing Old Soreness And Continuing To Soar? Beware Of Signs Of This Disease

JAKARTA - Soreness is a common sensation that is often experienced by many people, especially when they are in an unideal position for a long time, such as sitting in an attitude or sleeping with their hands crushed.

Although generally temporary and harmless, this condition can be an indicator of disorders in the nervous system or blood circulation.

A neurologist/saraf specialist at EMC Cibitung Hospital, Nysia Priscilla Angga Kusuma, explained that tingling is an abnormal sensation that generally occurs in areas of the body such as hands, feet, or fingers.

"This sensation can be in the form of a sense of needles, burning, or numbness. In the medical world, this condition is known as parestesia," said Nysia, quoted from the official EMC website.

Parestesia usually arises due to temporary stress on nerves or blood vessels, such as when the feet are crushed in certain positions. In many cases, the tingling will subside once the pressure is removed and the blood flow returns to normal.

However, if it happens continuously without a clear trigger, this could indicate neurological or vascular disorders. PhysICALly, saturation can occur due to the following mechanisms:

1. Pressure on Nervous or Blood Vessels

The position of the body that suppresses the nerves or blood vessels within a certain period of time can disrupt the blood supply and cause irritation of the nerves. When the blood flow is disturbed, the nerves will send a signal of disorder to the brain.

2. Impuls Saraf Implementation Obstacle

The nervous system functions to send impulses from the body to the brain and vice versa. If the nerve is compressed, the transmission of the signal is disturbed, causing abnormal sensations such as tingling or heat.

3. Recovery of Blood Circulation

When the pressure is removed and the flow of blood returns to normal, the body will respond with a sensing sensation that sometimes feels stronger. This is part of the process of recovering the nerve function.

4. Brain Response to Temporary Disorder

The brain processes signals from the nerves continuously. When there is a disturbance such as pressure or irritation, the signal sent can be distorted, and the brain interprets it as sneering. This sensation will disappear along with the return of the neural function to normal conditions.

When Will Soreness Become An Indication Of Health Disorders?

While often harmless, long-lasting, repeated, or emergent tingling can be a sign of certain medical conditions, such as:

1. Peripheral Neuropathy

Peripheral neuropathy is damage to peripheral nerves, which can cause chronic susceptibility. The causes can include diabetes mellitus, excessive alcohol consumption, infection, or lack of certain vitamins.

2. Disorder of Blood Circulation

Soreness accompanied by pale, cold, or bluish skin can indicate problems with blood circulation, such as peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This condition requires immediate medical evaluation.

3. Neurology disease

Some neurological diseases such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, or complex migraines can cause symptoms of tingling, especially if accompanied by other symptoms such as muscle weakness, speech disorders, or visual impairment.

4. Long-Term Facilities Compression

Long-lasting stress on nerves, for example due to hernia of pulposus nuclei (back disk support) or carpal aisle syndrome, can cause prolonged parestesia and require medical intervention.
