Italian term or phrase: sintomatologia parestesica
La sindrome del tunnel carpale colpisce le prime tre dita della mano con una sintomatologia parestesica caratterizzata da formicolii.

Explanation:
posso dirti per eseperienza purtroppo diretta che la sintomatologia è inizialmente di tipo sensoriale (alterata sensibilità, parestesie, sensazioni di intorpidimento o formicolio) e soltanto in seguito si presentano il dolore e la difficoltà nel movimento

nel tuo caso, paresthetic non è affatto sbagliato, ma per qualche motivo credo che sarebbe megio parlare appunto di "sensory symptoms (paresthesia)" oppure direttamente di "paresthesias"

...che consistono in numb/tingling sensations

PARESTHESIA

PARESTHESIA : Numbness, prickly sensations without point specificity, or abnormal hypersensitivities, all local to one part of the body, and without an obvious cause.

Your foot falling asleep is paresthetic, but not paresthesia, the cause is you sat funny.
