What Causes Discomfort, Chills And Tingling In Legs?

My legs have been bothering me of late.
Discomfort and a touch of tingling, however lately I've noticed that I get leg chills and they keep persisting.
Yesterday I took 2 hot baths trying to mitigate the feeling.
I don't really have any other symptoms.
Should I see a doctor?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your phyiscian i completely understand your health concerns.
what is ur age and sex? for how long u are suffering from it? any other associated problem? like diabetes or hypertension? are u having fever? any other lymph node swelling in ur body?are u smoker? is there any colour change in ur legs? any ulcer on leg?

In my opinion u should see a surgeon so that u can be examined well. based upon ur history it may point towards the vascular pathology but again , it need to be confirmed. if i am ur attending doctor i will get your DOPPLER UlTRASOUND as well as DUPLEX scan of ur legs too , to look for any pathology of vessels...

meanwhile stay calm and use acetaminophen to relieve pain and meet your doctor.
get well soon
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask
Regards
