Constant Pain, Discomfort In Right Calf. Not Enough Blood Supply To Right Foot. Bruising Around Right Toe. Reason?
I have constant pain ( cramping ) and discomfort in my right calf . My right foot feels cold and like it s not getting sufficient blood supply. I also have bruising around the right big toe . These symtoms have been relevant for over a year and getting worse. They aren t as bad when I am standing, but when I am laying down, my right leg throbs terribly. What are the possible reasons for such symptoms?

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having some vascular blockage in your right leg vein giving rise this problem.
There is possibility of having deep vein thrombosis.
Go for color Doppler examination.
Rule out diabetes as well.
consult vascular surgeon and get examined.
Ok and take care.
