Is Hot Sensation In Feet A Sign Of Pregnancy?
Question: Experiencing hot soles of feet obly at night. Putting lotion on my feet and letting air hit them, usually makes it more tolerabke to sleep. Ive been experiencing this for a few weeks now. I am also 10 weeks pregnant, im nost sure if that may have soemthing to do with it.
Brief Answer:
it's the pregnancy probably
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
hot feet is a relatively common symptom of pregnancy although it's usually expected later. If you don't have any other symptoms suggesting neural damage like numbness for example then this is probably due to pregnancy. Otherwise visiting a neurologist or your primary care physician would be recommended to exclude a neuropathy.
The bad thing about pregnancy related hot feet is that there is not much you can do besides cooling them naturally (for example with a wet towel).
I hope you find my comments helpful!
You can contact me again, if you'd like any clarification or further information.
Kind Regards!
