Warm feet, it wakes me up?

Question

I have heated feet. The toes come wine red and the soles of the feet At night it wakes me up and I feel better 2 days later when my feet are cold During the day it can happen sometimes. I put on compression stockings at night' during the day I lift my feet. I am a little tired of this, what should I do? I have a little swelling but not often. Yes the doctor told me that it could be venous insufficiency. I have consulted an acupuncturist and an osteopath but I wonder if it's not hiding something else thank you

Hello ma'am, sorry to read about your troubles! If I understand correctly, you wear compression stockings only at night? Do you have any other condition such as swelling in your legs, venous insufficiency? Have you ever seen a doctor for this problem? Thanks for the feedback! Compression stockings could help with the symptoms of venous insufficiency, but if your symptoms are temporary heat in the lower limbs, it is difficult to institute a pharmacological treatment without a medical evaluation. If it persists or worsens, you should consult your doctor again, as a precautionary measure, to reassess your needs. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful at this time. Have a nice day, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
