Leg Problems

Leg pain is very common, with many causes. A traumatic event, such as an injury, may cause leg pain. Additionally, there are many non-traumatic causes of leg pain, such as conditions that affect your bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, blood vessels, nerves, and skin. Often, back ailments cause leg pain.

Your pain may be sporadic or chronic. Perhaps your condition is inflammatory in nature and will pass. However, if the pain persists, remember to see your doctor. If you can't get relief elsewhere, our services can help.

Symptoms Of Leg Pain

Leg pain is caused by many things; therefore, it has a wide range of symptoms. Often, the pain can range from dull to sharp, from heavy aching to burning. Or, you may feel pain when your leg is touched. Your leg may even throb or feel quite stiff.

Some conditions cause leg pain even though the problem is elsewhere in your body, such as sciatica -- a lower back condition that radiates pain down the leg. Hip conditions may also be to blame, causing knee pain or even pain in the arch of your foot.

Some body pain will subside with warm-up activities as the body becomes loose. Other times, the pain will worsen with the same activity. Remember to visit your physician if you experience any body pain for an extended period of time.

Remember, it's important that you speak to a doctor if any of these symptoms are persistent, or if you experience them with any frequency.
