Detailed Answer:
Hi, Pain in the legs can be of various types and due to many causes. Please tell me exactly where it is. Is there any swelling anywhere? Is there tingling and numbness? Is it like cramps in calves? Is it coming from the back? Are there any rashes or small bumps? How long has it been there? Have you had similar pain in past? Have you had any illness recently? Do you have any recent test reports? If you could give me these details and any more you can think of, it will be easier for me to advise you.
Meanwhile take an over the counter Paracetamol, massage gently upwards with any pain balm, wear warm socks if the temperature is low, and take a B complex and a preparation with vitamin E. Please revert back with answers to my queries. Regards.
Note: For further queries, consult a joint and bone specialist, an Orthopaedic surgeon. Book a Call now.
