What Causes Heaviness In Legs And Feet?

Ever so often I get gas in my legs and feet. I know its gas because whenver I massage the discomfort I burp or pass gas. The feeling I have in my legs and feet is heaviness, almost like poor circulation without the pins and needles feeling. All I know is, when I massage it, I pass gas.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
From description of your symptoms I would like to know certain information about you like age, occupation, whether there is any visible veins on your lower limbs or not. If there are visible veins or networks of the veins then I would suggest my patient Color Doppler Examination of lower limbs to exclude varicose veins.
Thank you.
Regards,
Dr. Manan
