I have a vibrating sensation in my left heel that feels like a cell phone, occurring every 2 seconds for a month. I also experienced occasional muscle spasms in my leg and a sharp pain in my left leg after stretching. The sensation is more noticeable after long walks and while sleeping. Additionally, I had a similar vibration in my right foot recently. What could be causing this and what can I do about it?

A neighbor carried a sick raccoon from his yard to the front for removal by Animal Control. He used gloves and a blanket, and no direct contact was made with the raccoon. Afterward, he disposed of his gloves and washed his hands. Later, I spoke to his son about this for 5-10 minutes without masks and at a distance of 2-3 feet. The son and I are both fine, but I am worried about the risk of COVID-19 transmission due to the brief, close contact. Should I be concerned, and if the risk is low, can I visit family, friends, and my counselor without worry?
