Does Left Calf, Baby Toe Turning Beet Red Indicates Cauda Equina Syndrome?

I was diagnosed with Cauda Equina Syndrome in Sept 2012 and had emergency surgery. I m possibly having recurring symptoms right now. Awaiting MRI results. Tonight my left calf, foot and baby toe went beet red and are tight and painful to walk on. Could this be a symptom?

that is a definite symptom. but we need to be sure that it is neural and not maybe vascular. your mri has already been done. it would be better to comment on the issue once the mri has been seen and known
