What Causes Poor Blood Circulation In The Right Leg?

When after standing for 1 to 20 minutes and not moving I have circulation problem most with right leg also faith type feelings. If legs up no problem. cant work out much lipomas about 6 on each thigh and around knees. I m 62 male. Over the years when they started about age 30 was told fatty tissue later some docs said veins. I have factor 5 only know because my daughter had blood clot not much of one but we were all tested. All tests on me are perfect no one has found out what was wrong last 4 years swelling face at night but going away now just red but legs the problem. Main thing is Can Lipomas cause circulation problem.

Hello,

Lipomas are skin fat accumulation and do not affect the blood circulation or cause any of the problems you mentioned.
There are several possible causes of your symptoms and tests to make sure your kidneys are working well (creatinine and electrolytes), liver tests (ALT, AST, bilirubine), heart examination (heart auscultation by the doctor and ECG and heart ultrasound) might be needed.
If the above tests are normal then varicous veins can be the cause and a dopler ultrasound can help identify this diagnosis.

According to the most likely diagnosis the doctor will give you the specific treatment that will help with it.

I hope I have answered to your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Kind regards,
