I'm noticing I've had poor blood circulation for about a week now. When I keep my hands raised for just a few seconds, they start tingling and getting numb. Could you let me know which type of doctor I should consult for this? Is it related to a nerve problem? Which medical specialty would this fall under?

I've been experiencing some unusual sensations and I'm a bit concerned. Lately, I've noticed a persistent vibration throughout my body, but it seems like I'm the only one who can feel it. Additionally, there's this burning feeling in my legs that's quite uncomfortable. And on top of that, there's a tightness in the skin on both my legs and arms. It's a strange mix of symptoms, and I'm not sure what's causing them or what I should do next. Could you help shed some light on this?
