periodic warm sensation in lower left leg
For the past 2 days I have a very slight heat sensation in my lower left leg (no other problems). Is this some thing I should be concerned about now, or wait for my drs. appt in a few weeks?
Thank god I found this post. I have this warm sensation on the outside of my left leg from mid Knee down to the middle of my calf. I know from an MRI that I have osteoarthritis in this knee as well as a Popliteal cyst. The cyst will come and go if I irritate the knee (exercising). I am now wondering if the cyst has compressed my nerve or if I have the Vitamin B12 deficiency such as suggeseted in these posts. I am an ultrasonographer so I know that I do not have a clot as I looked (since it is the first thing I thought of). No pain is involved but just a weird sensation. If the cyst gets drained, I know it will come right back, but I am considering it. I have never heard of this before and I have been in the medical field for 30 years. I am surprised to read that it is so common.
I too am having a burning numbness from the outside of my left knee running down my lower leg to my ankle. It also feels cold at times like I can't get warm. One difference is I run alot and had tight calves so I used a tool called a "stick" to loosen my calves. When I ran it down the left side of the shin I crunched a nerve of some sort and caused some good pain running down to my foot. Then the very next day I have this burning numb sensation and it has lasted 5 days so far.
Seems to be a nerve issue, hopefully. At first I thought I had damaged my knee running and it caused the pain. Have any of you found anyway to alleviate the burning sensation yet?

Ok, I am 30 yrs old male. I started feeling this same feeling in my left leg.
STORY BEHIND LEG FEELING WEIRD:
It all started after I fell into a sympathetic relationship. And by that I mean, i had gone back home oversea for love. To be with a girl I had always prayed for to one day make my wife growing up since 7th grade.
We never talk about love until 2007.
After 3 years of talking she lied and told me she has no kid.
Not knowing the lie, I took a surprise visit oversea, after spending $1,800 in airfare.
She then tells me she got two boys. I just couldn't believe my mind.
I then wished I had never come on the trip.
I was devastated so much I didn't know what to say or do.
So, I just out of the blue said before her parents, I forgive her.
Now that I am in it, I just do not know how to extricate myself. Plus, I have invested so much time and money.
I came back to the United States and the thoughts of the kids hunted me and still do.
She is a beauty, I must admit. I am averagely looking, 150 lbs, and 5’10 height with a master degree and no kid.
I am so sympathetic to the point I do not know how to pull out. The thought to pull out is not even coming up as I would like. I love her but love is not keeping me in. It is the urge and fear to see her hit bottom that speaks to my heart. She at first lived in a slum. It rained and water entered the bedroom. No electricity whatsoever.
My love and faithfulness to the relationship and attitude do not feel natural at all. I feel burdened and feel it over my left leg. The negative thoughts are so strong, my left leg hurt.
Since I came in, she has home with electricity, water, toilet and going to college.
I met her ex and children father and he's with the girl he cheated on her for. I am just hoping for miracle because my happiness has since been clouded. And my left leg feeling weird tells me that.
I had always been a happy person. Not anymore!
I just hope she'd say, she wants out instead of me saying it.
LEG PROBLEM:
Since I got back to the United States I had been thinking about my initial plan to marry someone without kid. But I just do not know where that conviction had gone. I am overwhelmed with the thoughts of raising someone else's kids to the point my kidney, my heart and now left leg hurt. At first, I even talked to myself. Nowadays, I whine so much. She even noticed it over the phone.
My heart and kidney problems come as I am thinking all the potential negatives about my future with someone else's children and Ex.
I am feeling dizzy when I just move my head back and forth in motion.
My blood pressure sometimes read: 111/69.
One moment I forget the thoughts after reading the Bible and then in another when I do not read the Bible, I am reminded about it.
Today, my left leg feels warm, a little sense of about to give up type of feeling. It also feels like blood is finding it difficult to go up. My big left toe is also feeling weird. My hands are cold. I feel cold.
I am a little dizzy now. I should add, I have not been eating healthy and I stay up all night until 2am studying for license and wake up 6am twice a week and 8am on other days. I am a student as well.

I started feeling warmth on my left shin this week and the first thing I thought was poor blood circulation due to sitting down all day at work. I've never had this symptom before so I got really concerned. I am so glad to find this forum and I got to read all the correspondence, especially the post about the "nerve entrapment". Every 6 months I go to my doctor for blood work, and according to my lab results just last week I do not have Vitamin B12 deficiency. But over the weekend, I was playing with my daughter laying down flat on my back and I started having pain on my sciatic nerve area. It was so painful and more so when I moved and tried to get up. The pain lasted 2 days, that is when the warm sensation started. I'm planning to visit my doctor again and see what he says.
I too had this start today 55 ok health. Had a By-pass already. On my feet at work 8 straight hours.
But had the warm sensation this morning for the 1st time, weird to say the least . Happened several times. Glad to see I'm not alone.
Been havbing back pain also, neck the worst. So as some said could be nerve.

re my last post (10 minutes previous)... I have been taking B 12 and B complex injections for almost 20 years due to the type of anemia I have. I recently moved and haven't been keeping up with my weekly injections. This past week I started experiencing the warm feeling in my left leg in the shin area. It only lasts a few seconds but it was freaking me out! I am very healthy, non smoking, light weight... I am happy to see that so many others have this weird experience and even happier that B 12 may be related- since I have a specific B 12 deficiency that I can easily treat. I will repost with an update after I resume my injections. Hopefully they will help resolve the problem!
