Had Sunburn On Feet. Feet Color Changed To Purple, Calf Feel Heavier. Risk Of Blood Clot?
Hi, I am on holiday and have sunburnt my feet 4 days ago which resulted in them turning patchy purple colour. When I stand it is worse I figured this is due to blood flow? My left foot is slightly worse and my calf seems to feel heavier or tingle sensation, I also have a varicose Cain in the same calf - is there risk of blood clotting etc?
Hello Welcome to healthcare magic forum Thank you for your query. I understand your query regarding your skin problem. You have sunburn and varicose vein problem. The problem you have is due to venous cause and do not look like direct relation with sun burn. You need to apply good sun screen lotion regularly. Wear full and cotton cloths. You need to consult surgeon doctor. try to keep your leg elevated. I hope I answered your query. Wish you speedy recovery. Regards.
