Any Suggestion For Extreme Pain In Back Of Thighs, Knees And Arms?

My 15year old son started experiencing pain in the back of his thighs and knees yesterday while in school. Today he has pain in his the back of his arms as well. He can't straighten his legs when he stands due to the extreme pain. He can't sleep and ibuprofen is not helping. I don't know what else I can do. He doesn't play sports and has not obtained any recent injuries.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
It can be pinch nerve in back or hamstring spasm.I will suggest following things.
1. Take MYoril or myospaz tablet
2. Hot water fomentation
3. Tablet Pregabalin m one at night time
4.Keep leg in bending position when sleeping
I hope these things will help him, if symptom increases go and get MRI of spine.
