Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Leg Pain Behind Thigh, Numbness, Tingling Sensation In Fingers After Flying. Treatment?
I flew on an airplane for 4 1/2 hours last night. My right leg started aching in the calf and back of the thigh on the plane and it still hurts. My leg, however, did not hurt me when I ran today. It aches now and the last two fingers of my right hand are feeling a little numb/tingly as well. My leg did hurt a couple of days ago before I flew, about 8 hours after a 5 mile run. I m more concerned about the hand/ arm numbness. Any ideas?

Leg Pain Behind Thigh, Numbness, Tingling Sensation In Fingers After Flying. Treatment?
Hi, Thanks for writing your query. After reading your post, it seems that your symptoms are due to muscular sprain as a result of wrong posture. You can take painkiller like Ibuprofen twice daily after meals along with a muscle relaxant like Chlorzoxazone. Methylcobalamin supplement can be taken for few days. If the problem persists, get yourself clinically examined and investigated. I hope this is helpful to you. Thanks.
