'Pins and needles' is a sensation of uncomfortable tingling or prickling, usually felt in the hands or feet.
A common cause is leaning awkwardly on a limb, which presses against the nerves.
Persistent pins and needles may be symptomatic of more serious conditions, such as nerve disease or nerve inflammation.
Always see your doctor if you experience persistent or frequent episodes of pins and needles

are you a diabtec, then you got diabetic neuropathy.

I get pins and needles when I don't move a certain part of my body for a long time- the most common places are the foot, hand, or leg. To prevent it, just move the affected part for a long time and it will be gone.
I am not sure why you are getting it regulary, but if ever in doubt, consult a doctor,
