Still Having Pain In My Left Leg. The Pain Feels
Question: still having pain in my left leg. the pain feels like it may be from the major blood vessel. can this be from a stroke?.
Brief Answer:
Possible vascular issue
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I don't think that the pain in the leg is possibly caused by a stroke.
The main symptoms of a stroke are numbness, weakness, lack of sensation in legs and inability to move them.
The pain is possibly caused by a pinched nerve-related issue in your lumbar spine.
Also, peripheral artery disease can cause changes in blood circulation in legs, closing the arteries and causing pain. The pain is caused mainly in movement.
You may need to visit a vascular surgeon consultation for it.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further
