Paresthesia (Greek para- = abnormal, esthesia = feeling) is abnormal sensation on the skin that has no apparent physical cause (1). Paresthesia includes numbness and tingling, and can be temporary or permanent. Numbness is a decreased or lost sensation in the skin. Tingling is an unusual sensation in the skin. It is often described as feeling of pins and needles, tickling, pricking, creeping, skin crawling, ant crawling, and so on.
The orangutan (Pongo) is a great ape that has fur with a color between red and brown. There are two species of orangutan. They are from Southeast Asia. There are very few of them left, because loss of the jungle has reduced their habitat. There are orangutans on view at the Singapore Zoo.
PLAYFUL FACTS. In Malay and Indonesian orang means person and utan is derived from hutan, which means forest.. Thus, orangutan literally means person of the forest.. Orangutans' arms stretch out longer than their bodies - over two metres from fingertip to fingertip - and are used to employ a hookgrip.
