A member asked:
When i bend my ankles i sometimes feel a little coolness for a few seconds. what could this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Circulation: Where are you feeling coolness? Do your toes get cold? Could be an occlusion of blood flow in an artery when you dorsiflex or plantarflex (move down) the foot.
