Could Warm Sensation In Calf Going Under Knee Be Due To Constant Travelling?

Hi. I have a warm sensation that is on the outside if my left calf and travels to just under my knee. I have traveled for 12 hours the past two days so thought it may be from sitting. I gave been trying to move my leg around to see if it helps. I have the sensation when sitting and/or standing. Thank you Becky

Hello,
Thanks for your query.
It could occur due to exertion and prolonged travelling. Icing over area and applying muscle relaxant gel will be helpful.
I advice you to give you rest to the part affected, take anti-inflammatory drug like motrin 1 tablet with food as and when required (upto 4 tablets daily) to redce inflammation and consult your doctor for thorough examination and rule out any infective cause.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
