What could cause one foot to turn red and the other not when taking a hot bath? lately, when i take a hot bath my left foot gets red as you'd expect but the right foot does not though both feet are in same water for the same amount of time?

The difference in color could be due to a difference in arterial or veinous or both in circulation. See your family doctor or podiatrist for an evaluation.
