Hi.....Your history is not sufficient to arrive at any diagnosis. Many conditions can cause symptoms like this. If you are a chronic smoker, this could be a case of TAO (thrombo angitis obliterans) which is a vascular disease, which can symptoms like pain during during walking. OR it could be a deep seated infection like Cellulitis OR other conditions like Deep vein thrombosis OR compartment syndrome. Kindly consult your Physician for detailed evaluation of your symptoms.
