Does Severe Pain In A Leg With Peripheral Neuropathy Warrant Medical Attention?
Hi I have knee pain which I have been treating with rest and ice. There was no injury but a sudden onset. I have also pain in my lower leg . This wakes me at night and is restricting my ability to walk. I have a peripheral neuropathy in that leg also. Should I attend my GP or just give it more time? I have had it off and on for 3 weeks and it appears to be getting worse thanks

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, arthritis condition of knee joint is very likely if you have not done the x-ray of knee joint then better to get this done for confirmation till then it can be given try with Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day, avoid abduction of knee joint beyond 90 degree hope this information helps.
