Tightness in feet and lower legs

I have a constant feeling in feet and lower legs as if I'm wearing shoes and socks or bandages (not so) A bit like the sensation when part of the body has "gone to sleep" Isn't painful and I can walk etc. Any ideas?

I note that you are a pensioner so it sounds like you should see your GP to get it checked out for diabetes, b12 defic and other neuropathy conditions

Thanks for suggestions, not diabetic or b12 deficient, my annual bloods/health check due soon so I will ask nurses thoughts. Sometimes find ancillary staff more clued up than Docs. !!!
