I would see your primary doctor. What I really want to know is if you have edema. What you should so is press down on your feet. If the skin does not come back up after you have moved your finger you should cut down on your salt intake. The doctor will probably give you medication if it doesn't resolve itself. Then you should prop your feet up when your watching tv or laying down. That should help as well. But call you primary about it.

I would go to see your G.P. first and get a referral to whoever they think is appropriate.
However to answer your question, I believe a Podiatrist (also known as a Chiropodist) would be the specialist to see.
* Fun Fact: The profession of foot care has been around since ancient egypt and is seen in many egyptian carvings, the most well known example being at the entrance to Ankmahor's tomb.

The doctor who took out your linfatic nodules must be informed.
