How Can Heaviness And Pain In The Legs Leading To Difficulty In Walking And Tiredness Be Managed?

For the last 6 years I ve struggled with my legs. My main symptoms are heaviness and aching. Everyday is a struggle to walk when I get out of bed. I hate to sit down because I m unable to get up with out major effort. Would stand all day if I could. Once I m up and going I do fairly well. I work 7 hour shifts and I don t sit at all. I m getting so tired of this way of life.

Hello,

Get your vitamin D, calcium and thyroid and blood sugar levels checked as these are the most common causes and if these are deranged get them corrected.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
