What Does Numbness And Coldness Indicate?

I am having trouble my foot. It started out with one vein. It looked like there was a wire under the skin with a bump on it on the bottom of my foot. I went to a Padiatrist, and she has no clue as to what is going on and has done no tests or anything. It also feels like I stuck my foot halfway up my calf into a bucket of Ice water.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case.
There is possibility of raynauds phenomenon.
I will advise you to do MRI spine and colour doppler leg.
For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and TENS therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level and haemoglobin.

Vascular claudication can also lead to cold feet.
Colour Doppler may help in diagnosis.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
