Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Since you can walk for a distance and feeling tiered after that problem will in muscle could be due to reduced blood supply. get your leg examined by a physician. Get Doppler test of lower limb vessels done. Regular exercise helps to keep muscles in good condition.
Hope this helps you.
Regards
