Q: Sharp stinging pain on body
asked by: ladyjay12 on May 4th, 2008

Hi everyone. I get this sharp stinging pain which feels like if i was bit by an insect. It happens in random parts of my body at least once a day and it has been going on for about a week. So far i felt the sting mainly on my arms and legs. I have no idea what is causing it so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

My son just started having pains like yours. Have you found out anything? We were in The Turks and Caicos Islands when it started. Allie

I too have these pains, however I've had it for years now. It does feel like a very small insect is biting and it happens most frequently on my arms, legs, and ankles. Usually I think, "OK this time it has to be an insect biting me..." and I look and it's nothing. I would love to find out what this is...as it's rather annoying!

stinging sensation on skin
I, too, am having these random stinging sensations on my arms, legs, and trunk. The have been problematic for about three months and seem to have started about the same time as some pretty significant myalgia. The myalgia is starting to get better now that I am taking a drug holiday from my statin, but the stinging continues.

I've had the same sentsations for about a week, mostly on my ankle area and legs. I am convinced there is a bug biting me, if not stinging me, and there is always nothing. It's so random, but does happen at least once a day, yesterday twice.. on my upper thigh (am) and my ankle (pm).
