What causes splinter-like feelings on upper leg?
Patient: My younger son has multiple splinter - like feelings on his upper leg, he originally thought he had glass in his leg but we couldn t find any splinters or glass shards, and he wasn t near anything glass as he had just got out of the shower. What should we do? Doctor: hi Your son has  abnormal sensation of multiple splinters in upper thigh . In my opinion this kind of feelings come when there is pressure on the nerves  originating is the spinal cord. I would recommend Pregabalin , pain killers, and suggest S Vit B12 and MRI Spine( Lower Spine).
