What Causes Redness, Tingling And Burning Feeling In Legs?

I am 38 weeks pregnant and for the last 20 minutes my legs have been tingling and kinda burning. So I pulled my pants down to look, and they are very red and splotchy. I do not think it s circulation as I have been laying or sitting most of the day. Nothing I ve done could have caused it. So what is it and what do I do.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement,  's  Response
Hello,
I have studied your case and I think that either it can be due to collection of fluid in the feet ( edema) or it can be allergic reaction.
I would recommend you to meet your gynaecologist and discuss this case with her. If there is allergy reaction she can advised you to take Cetrizine which is an antiallergic medication.
Avoid wearing tight clothing or application of any ointment. Do not take any medicine with out discussing with your doctor.
I hope this answer will be helpful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
