You will need to call your doctor. Poor circulation could be the culprit but you definitely don't want to have a blood clot or a life-threatening condition that is going untreated. Call them and see what they will have you do.

I would definitely put your feet up and try and rest.You should let your doctor know in case they want to see you.

I would say probably lack of blood flow. Rest with your feet up every once in a while....especially at night! You could also massage your legs to get your blood flowing.....good reason for DH to give you a nice foot rub! :)
