• Answer:

  You need to talk to your doctor about this. It could be anything. It often happens to me when I'm standing for a while or after a walk. For me, it's because I have circulatory issues in my legs. I also have some weight to lose and that puts pressure on your legs. We are not medically trained and neither is the internet.
