What is the cause of the ant-crawling mosquito sensation on the soles of the feet?

Ant crawling mosquito sensation is also referred to as ant walking sensation. Ants in the soles of the feet may be associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, lumbar disc herniation, vitamin B1 deficiency, and neurosensory abnormalities caused by central system diseases.
1. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy: It is a common complication of diabetes mellitus, which is mainly manifested by abnormal sensation in the distal limbs.
2. Lumbar intervertebral disc herniation: due to the compression of the nerve root caused by the herniated nucleus pulposus, it may also lead to numbness and weakness of the lower limbs, and some people may also manifest ants sensation.
3. Vitamin B1 deficiency: commonly known as pes planus, it is a neurosensory abnormality caused by vitamin B1 deficiency.
4. Central nervous system diseases: encephalitis, myelitis and intracranial tumors may lead to nerve damage and abnormal peripheral nerve sensation.
Due to the many factors affecting the condition, the specific situation needs to be analyzed by a doctor’s interview first, and then combined with other clinical manifestations.
