Symptom 8 – Pins and Needles Sensation
A sensation of pins and needles being put inside one’s body are the active symptoms of an attack caused by panic. The sensation is mostly limited to some special parts of the body like the palms of the feet, but in some cases, numbness or tingling can be experienced throughout the whole body. In a few cases, the numbness is also followed by a burning sensation.
These sensations are possible results of excessive breathing which is usually triggered during the time of panic attacks, and like all other previous panic attack symptoms, can be braided with slow breathing and resting.
