Brief Answer:
Maybe vascular insufficiency

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for the query,

This may be a symptom of vascular insufficiency. Your doctor may request diagnostic testing including a vascular blood flow study which may help find the cause of your symptoms and will allow your doctor to formulate a treatment plan which may include referral to a vascular specialist.

I would suggest you discuss this with your primary care doctor as soon as possible.

Thanks again for sending the query,

Sincerely,

Dr. Galamaga
