Tingling And Pulsating Feeling In The Foot. Reddish Bruise Formed. Reason?

I was having my nails done today. I had my feet soaked in warm water with jets that was directed to the medial side of my foot more so directed to metatarsophalangeal jt of the great toe and this kept going for about 10 mins when I felt a tingling pulsating feeling and the medial side of my right foot turn red and warm. The tingling subsided after 15-20 mins and the redness disappeared but looke bruised on that area. What happened there

Hello,
Welcome at HCM.

I have read complete details of your question.

Redness or bruise at your foot is due to soft tissue injury to upper layers of skin which is there due to pressure of continuous water jet .
You should not worry about that .You should apply a soft ace bandage from below upward.It should not be applied tightly, better to apply over a layer of soft cotton layer.
Keep your limb elevated over the pillow.

Take an anti inflammatory preparation like aleeve.

It may take 5-7 days to disappear.

Hope this all will help you.

With best wishes.
