Foot Bruised Instantly After Itching, Pain, Experiencing Bad Headaches. Require Urgent Care?

After standing from a sitting position the top of my right foot had feelings similar to pin pricks and started itching really bad. There was no injury as far as bumping it on anything. My foot bruised instantly after itching it. Two days later it is larger and a red/bruised line is traveling up my leg. I have also been experiencing bad headaches. Is this anything that should require urgent care?

Hello
As uyou mention your problem it is not very clear becouse you didnt mention your age.
if you are old age and if you have family history of Diabetes it is seems to be Diabetic feature but for this you will have to for Blood Suger test and confirm. If blood suger is normal it may be sciatic pain or May be local fungal infection.
so first go for Blood Suger & Blood Pressure examination
Ok Take care

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

It sounds like Vasculitis..
And the headache may not be related to it...
You should see an Internist / may need some basic blood tests
Anti-histamine may be tried in the mean time...
Avoid Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID) until the diagnosis is clear...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
