What Causes Sudden Bruising And Numbness In Feet?

I m a 58 year old male and have noticed a sudden onset of bruising in my right foot. Last night, I noticed some bruising on the top of my left foot by my toes. Today, the whole side of my right foot is dark and bruised looking. I have numbness in both feet. Do I need to seek immediate attention or just reach out to my doctor on Monday? I have pictures that I could send you.
