Paresthesia is defined as an abnormal sensation of the body, such as numbness, tingling, or burning. Treatment of paresthesia depends on an accurate diagnosis of the underlying cause. For people with limbs that have fallen asleep, restoration of their circulation through exercising, stretching, or massaging the affected limb can rapidly dissipate the tingling and sensations of numbness

What to do when a leg has gone to sleep and putting pressure on it hurts?

When your leg goes to sleep, a condition called paresthesia, it's because the blood circulation has been interrupted to your leg. What I usually do is reposition my body so that circulation is restored to my leg, then try not to move the leg as circulation is restored. Movement will cause pain and tingling during recovery from paresthesia, and it is not necessary to restore circulation (beyond moving to restore circulation).
