Is it normal to have hot feet and ankles, with aches and pains in the lower legs?
Hot feet, especially at night time, is one of the symptoms of vitamin B5 deficiency and many retailers in the health food stores I visit tell me it works for those they recommend it to.
Aches and pains in the lower leg could be related to the circulation.
Are you on your feet all day?
If there is any sign of puffiness in the ankles or varicose vein development, please consider trying some Venaforce® (Horse Chestnut) tablets. They help improve the bloods return back up the legs to the heart.
Alternatively, if your calves quickly fill with lactic acid when walking, then Ginkgo biloba is the remedy to aid blood flow towards the legs, aiding oxygen delivery to the muscles.
Do make sure to raise your legs above your heart for 10 minutes each evening too.
Best wishes
Earle
