With nerve conduction studies, you may feel a quick, burning pain, a tingling feeling, and a twitching of the muscle each time the electrical pulse is given. It feels like the kind of tingling you feel when you rub your feet on the carpet and then touch a metal object. The tests make some people anxious.
For diagnosing problems, such as tarsal tunnel syndrome, where there is compression of the nerve, a doctor may use electrodiagnostic tests, such as nerve conduction studies and electromyography. For nerve conduction studies, the doctor fastens electrodes to the ankle and foot, then sends small electric shocks to the nerves in the lower leg, ankle, and toes, and measures the speed of conduction of nerve fibers.
