A 'foot doctor' has warned that symptoms of high cholesterol can appear on the feet - especially during the night. David R. Sullivan said the condition can be seen in a number of ways, Coventry Live reports.
The Daily Express reported that he said: "Burning toe and foot pain, specifically at night, could be a warning sign of high cholesterol levels." He went on to give an explanation, saying: "This pain could indicate atherosclerosis, a build-up of plaque that forms in your blood vessels, preventing blood from flowing freely."
"Unlike the pain of everyday wear and tear, this high cholesterol warning sign found in the feet will burn or ache while you’re resting in bed," he added.
