A member asked:

I've been over the course of a week getting a warm sensation in my left leg, comes and goes every hour or so, could this be a sign of something bad?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be anything: It could be a muscle pain, like strain, or a condition caused by spine disease like herniated disc. Of course a detailed history and physical is necessary and you should see your internist.
