no it doesn't hurt at all, just tingly.
i should also mention that if i'm really tired and about to go to sleep i sometimes get it too. but it always happens during meditation and sometimes gets more intense as time goes on.

Does it happen as you relax or is it pretty instant?

Might be a healing/rejuvenation process.
Seems meditating or at least stilling the mind gives your unconscious intelligence room to begin work.

I think it is just a sign of getting focused. Refined attention allows you to feel things you normally are not aware of. In pretty much every meditation I do now I get tingling vibrations in my hands that sometimes pulse's, and sometimes corresponds with pulsing pleasure in my head.
But who knows? I've experience all sorts of weird stuff in meditation I can't explain. In my previous meditation it felt like my hands in my lap were hundreds of feel away from my head, I could still feel the vibrations in them but they seemed far far down.
Just be aware of the sensations and let it go, don't be too attached either way, and don't try to increase or decrease it. Just let em be.

Your feeling your chi. When you meditate your nerves open up and your expansion for feeling increases in radius

Is it like when your foot falls asleep? You could just be pinching a nerve due to bad posture.
There are a lot of really odd sensations that can come up in meditation. For instance, sometimes I feel like all my limbs are bent at crazy impossible angles, or that I'm swaying wildly back and forth with each beat of my heart.

it's like maybe the onset of when your foot falls asleep with a little numbness, it doesn't get as intense or painful. i haven't meditated past 10 minutes in a while, so i'm going to do at least 20 or longer and see what happens.

I experience somewhat of the same thing, my temples and nose get intense vibrations as I start to fall into my breathing and the more relaxed I become the more of my physical body feels the same vibrations.

I have this too, but in my legs. As my meditation gets deeper and deeper the feeling creeps up my body eventually making me feeling like I am radiating.
But seriously, it's quite interesting. Without a biological way to describe it, I would agree and call it Chi.
