Hi,
Severe pain and
fatigue in the legs can be caused by a variety of underlying conditions, ranging from musculoskeletal problems to more serious medical conditions such as
peripheral artery disease or neuropathy. Given your medical history of stage 3
Hepatitis C, it is important to see a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and receive appropriate treatment.
In the meantime, you can try to manage your symptoms by:
* Elevating your legs whenever possible
* Avoiding standing or sitting for long periods
* Doing gentle exercises such as walking or swimming to improve circulation and reduce fatigue
* Wearing comfortable shoes with good support
* Maintaining a healthy weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise
It is important to follow your healthcare provider's instructions for any medication or treatment recommendations and attend all scheduled appointments for your condition.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
