Answers:
If you've been sat with your legs crossed or one tucked under you, one of the nerves can become compressed causing pins and needles!. Usually this will resolve itself once the pressure is released!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'm not sure why scientifically, however, I also really suffered badly from pins & needles!. I was told to wear fir negative ion socks like elite athletes wear to boost circulation & help remove toxins which has really worked great!. I also use to get the same problem in my hands so I wear thermal healing gloves too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

So they are asleep!? Or is it jerking!? Anything like that!? Sounds like Restless legs syndrome!.

Blood circulation could be another cause, leg exercises, such as walking, will help!.

Multiple Sclerosis, it's impossible, but could be it!.

If it happens occasionally, you should get it checked out by your doctor for a diagnosis!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Lack of blood circulation to the affected area causes the 'tingling' sensation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Lack of muscle movement, or a
trapped nerve, (ie compressed, until it's free)!.
Oh dear, Ive just seen Nurse S's answer, oh well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Poor blood circulation to the affected limb!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
