3. Leg Cramps
Frequent cramps, especially at night, could signal dehydration, low levels of magnesium or potassium, or even issues with blood flow.
4. Numbness or Tingling
If your legs often feel numb, tingly, or “fall asleep” without pressure, it may point to nerve damage, diabetes, or poor circulation.
5. Cold Feet and Legs
Constantly cold legs or feet might be a sign of poor blood flow, thyroid issues, or peripheral artery disease (PAD).
6. Muscle Weakness
Difficulty climbing stairs or standing for long could indicate nutritional deficiencies, nerve issues, or early signs of conditions like multiple sclerosis.
7. Skin Changes
Dry, flaky, or shiny skin on the legs may point to circulation issues. Dark patches, ulcers, or wounds that heal slowly could be linked to diabetes or vascular disease.
