What Could Tingling Sensation In Legs, With Spider Veins Indicate?
I have burning, tingling sensation in my legs even during the day. Do you think I need to have the arteries cleaned? I have a very sensible lifestyle with good food and plenty of exercise - I am 70 years of age and I have also noticed many many spider veins appearing on my legs.

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can.
This is more likely related to varciose veins then to artery blockage. You should do Doppler ultrasound to check vein valves and distribution. If my diagnosis is right then there are many ways to treat it including surgery.
