Hi,

Welcome to Health Care Magic,

I am Dr.Naveed Ullah khan,

I have read your question in detail and will try to help you in the best way possible.

As you are a driver, Warm feeling in the leg can be due to stasis of the blood in your veins. It is very important to do a work up for any clots in the deep and superficial veins of ur leg. I suggest u do a dopplar venograph. If a clot is present then it can travel up to the lungs and cause pulmonary embolism. So it would be important to do the work up for a clot.in your leg.


I hope this answered all your queries, if you have more queries,I will be happy to answer.

Wish you the best of health.

Regards.

Dr.Naveed Ullah Khan.
