Why does it feel like pins and needles when your feet fall asleep?

I haaaate that feeling! Why does it happen? I know that it's because the circulation gets cut off, but why does that make it feel so.bad??

how long does an actual seizure last?

Answers:
Your feet are numb when they are (asleep) no blood circulating.
As soon as you start moving them, blood starts flowing and
circulating through thousands of tiny nerve cells. That is where
the pins and needles feeling comes from. Stop sitting on top
of your feet & it will not happen.

My boyfriend keeps e-mails from his ex-girl.What should I do?

The nerve endings are "coming back to life" after having the loss of blood. It's your body's way of letting you know they still work.

I do not mean to gross anyone out, but if you have a bowel movement and strain too hard is it possible?

Because you're too cute and beautiful and you're feet cant handle it.
