Welcome @connecting2024, I think the answer to your question is maybe but I think it probably will take a foot specialist to determine the cause. Here's some information on your question that might explain the condition.

--- Varicose veins causing tibial nerve compression in the tarsal tunnel: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6536195/

Have you discussed your question with your care team or foot specialist?

Yes, I am seeing 2 specialists - a podiatrist and a regenerative sports medicine doctor. Neither of them knows for sure what is causing it. Probably a combination of a lot of issues in the foot. I am trying to avoid anything invasive until I first have a better idea of WHY. I will read the article you sent me. Thank you.
