Warm Sensation Travels From Lower Legs Up To Spine, Painful. What Could It Be ?

I have had 2 separate occasions when a warm sensation travels from my lower legs up to my spine. It is also very painful at the same time. First time, I turned over in bed and it happened, and second, I arose from bed to go to bathroom and it happened. It was difficult to continue to walk but I managed to get to toilet to sit. It is not a pleasant feeling and pain travels as the warm feeling travels up the legs.

Hi, it appears to be the effect of compression of the nerve or obstruction of the arteries due to atherosclerosis.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment. you may need to have colordoppler, and cholesterol besides othe rroutine tests for confirmation. thank you.
