Unusual-talk to Dr: It could be a side effect of the medication, but is unusual at your age, so you should definitely tell your Dr about it.

In some...: Rarely, but in some people Beta blockers (metoprolol) can initially produce a contraction of small arteries in the lower extremities... Let you Dr. Know, but DO NOT STOP your medication Do not panic, it is not an emergency
