What Causes Relatively Less Blood Circulation In The Right Leg?
I ve had a burst fracture of my L1 vertebrae recently (4 weeks ago), I m still in a back brace and do not experience any pain or discomfort. I did not require surgery. What does worry me though is the circulation in my left foot appears to be less effective than my right foot. Is this an indication of neurology issues?

I would like to examine & investigate you in detail before a definite answer can be given.
What you are describing as "circulation in my left foot appears to be less effective than my right foot", may be altered sensation due o pressure on spinal cord or the nerve root.
