Hi,i think your problem not coming from your spine and your purple and blue discoloration in legs with tingling and numbness is because of vascular claudication. which means impaired blood circulation in you legs which increased in severity during walking.
you required some of tests like-
colour doppler of legs
mri of spine
blood sugar and CBC.
Thanks
