What Causes Warmth In Thighs?
About two hours ago, I noticed my right thigh was unusually warm to the touch. When I got home, i checked webmd and came up with deep vein thrombosis. I did some research and I m having a LOT of the symptoms of dvt. I noticed that I ve been having random heart palpitations more frequently recently, which is starting to seriously worry me since the article I just read said those are one of the more serious symptoms. Do I need to rush to the emergency room right this second, or can I wait until the morning when my doctors office opens?

Hello,
It can be an early sign of cellulitis. Consult a general surgeon and get evaluated. Antibiotics might be started at the earliest.
