What Could Cause Warm Feeling In The Ball Of Foot?
I have a warm feeling in the ball of my foot that occurs intermittently - once every few hours. It's not painful, it just feels like I am standing on a warm spot. It disappears in seconds. I took a 9 hour flight on Friday and am worried it could be phlebitis. Any ideas? Thanks!-
As per your history and symptoms possibility of cellulitis can be considered. Consulting your doctor infection /cellulitis can be confirmed, antibiotic can be started according to examination.
If required you may need to do blood investigation for prognosis and recovery. Take precaution to avoid spread of infection. Vitamin B12 is important in the maintenance of health and normal functioning of the nerve tissue. You can increase B12 level by taking meat and fish, or you can take Inj methylcobalamine.
