How To Treat Throbbing Pain In Just One Area Of The Left Leg Which Is Better By Walking?
My left leg has a throbbing pain in just one particular area it is worse after sitting down or in bed. Walking around seems to be much better. I have tried 'pain away spray' but only helps a little. I sometimes take aspro clear and it does help but the pain returns after 6 hours.
Thank you.
Thank you.

You have not specified that whether it is in joint, bone or muscle. Throbbing pain can be due to either nerve compression or hematoma collection. i would recommend you to get ultrasound of your leg and an x ray. This will give us exact picture whether you are having any disease or it is just minor sprain of muscles. I hope you are taking pain killers like brufen or acetaminophen.
