The skinny jeans hazardous for health?
They are haute, sexy, and give your legs a 'fashionable' edge. But if you're planning to slip into that super-tight pair of jeans for the night out, then here's a news flash: the skin-fit garment can cause a nerve problem called meralgia paresthetica or 'tingling thigh syndrome.'
The condition's developer Parmeeta Ghoman recalls the initial feeling of 'tingling thigh syndrome,' reports The New York Daily News.
She said: "It felt really strange - it felt like my leg had gone to sleep."
"The nerve, in some people, is susceptible to compression," Dr. John England, of the American Academy of Neurology said.
"It is a pure sensory nerve - it doesn't go to muscles or provide strength. Anything that is tight around there could potentially compress the nerve that goes there," the expert added.
According to chiropractic physician Dr. William Madosky, "The key is, you remove the pressure, and the nerve regenerates."
