What Causes Rigidity, Swelling And Pain In The Legs Upon Walking?
Hi I am Judy and I am having pain in both legs along with swelling. I stand or walk for more than 5 minutes the pain starts in the hips and then goes down right into my feet. I take a fluid pill but some times I still fill up with fluid. My muscles get real tight when this happens and stays that way for about 20 minutes after the exercise is done. they have done lab work, x-rays on my lower back area, but know one knows what is going on cuz everything comes back normal. it is very frustrating as I can not get out to exercise like I would like to.
