    It could be just nerves, i get buzzing sensations all the time in both legs and feet if I'm anxious.

    No need to panic about foot buzz, its kind of nerve issue, either not infection or covid.

    Compressed nerve or damaged nerve:

    Damage to the nerves in the extremities, also known as peripheral neuropathy, can cause paraesthesia in some cases.

    You might calm down and please check below (I am not doctor but I am health phobia).

    • Check diabetes asap
    • Heart rate and BP
    • Check uric acid
    • Check triglyceride and LDL/HDL
    • Check ASO strip test
    • Check anxiety level

    To treat yourself during crisis:

    • If diabetes is high lower your level and take pregablin or gabapetin
    • If diabetes you can take paraesthesia meds such as anticonvulsant (macta)
    • If you are trembling take xanax or amilin
    • If you are extreme pain ibuprofen or NASID

    Equipment on your side:

    • Thermometer (always)
    • Diabetes test kit
    • BP monitor
    • Oximeter and Pulse rate checker (use phone)
    • Lipid profile and Cholesterol test kit

    No need to go ER unless you are dying pain (just to go there and expose covid is not a good idea).

      I think you need to check diabetes before going ER. This symptoms are usually nerve related due to either compressed nerve or diabetes neuropathy.

    My legs and feet have been periodically tingling for about a year, initially constantly for a few months then off and on. Doctors think its a manifestation of anxiety.
