Hello,
In my opinion, it could be either vitamin B deficiency or a beginning of a L5 S1 disc problem. However, I recommend you to do a quick test to exclude back issue. Sit on a chair and extend your right knee, then pull your ankle into dorsiflexion and flex your neck downwards. If you feel pain over tingling or heaviness in your foot then it is a back problem. Repeat to the left leg.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
