What Causes Burning Pain On Top Of The Legs?

I have a burning pain on the top of my leg above my ankle. It came up suddenly and hurts with walking. Pain is constant. I have not had any trauma to the area. I have been walking a lot over the past 5 months. This symptom started about 2 weeks ago.

Hello and thanks you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can with my answer.

It may indicate circulation issues in kegs due to atherosclerosis or neuropathy due to diabetes. You should do Doppler ultrasound,and check sugar levels in blood. But it sounds like claudications which are related to reduced circulation.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us.
