It may seem weird, but paresthesia usually is painless and harmless. But sometimes it can be a sign of a more serious medical problem.
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.
A paresthesia is an abnormal sensation, such as numbness or tingling, due to nerve injury or dysfunction. A common example is the feeling of your hands or feet “falling asleep” when they're in one position for too long.
