Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Are The Causes For Poor Circulation In Legs, Cold Feeling In Feet And Discoloration In Legs?
I have poor circulation in my legs. some time my toes cramp up at night when I sleep.My feet are ice cold in bed at night. also have some discolor in my legs from my ankles half way up to my knee. it looks like a got a rash but its not itchy or rough.
causes for poor circulation are-commonly associated in heavy smokers, diabetics, chronic alcoholism and sometimes associated with thyroid poor functioning. If these are not there then sometimes it is due to occlusive disease of blood vessels. There should be careful evaluation with tests and color doppler ultrasound etc after examination by a physician/surgeon
