from wikipedia
"Paresthesia or paraesthesia (in British English) is a sensation of tingling, pricking, or numbness of a person's skin with no apparent long-term physical effect, more generally known as the feeling of pins and needles or of a limb being "asleep" (but not directly related to the phenomenon of sleep). Its manifestation may be transient or chronic."

Numbness or tingling e.g.lay on your arm for about 15mins - you should make it go numb. If you get numbness or tingling without this regularly see your GP.
It could be nothing, your GP will advise. If you have a family history of stroke or multiple sclerosis your GP should investigate further.
