What Causes Redness And Tingling Sensation In The Lower Legs?

Came home from long car trip today and my feet and up to mid-calf are red and tingling. Toes appear swollen. I am a 70 year old female living in Florida. Earlier they were aching, but now just feel like they are asleep, but not all the way. Concerned that the his may be the beginning of neuropathy.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The symptoms that you have are commonly related to peripheral artery disease which is a problem related to blood circulation in the feet. I suggest you to see your doctor for a physical exam and an ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis and get proper treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
