What Does Severe Leg And Back Pain With Chills Indicate?
My Dad has severe pain in his leg. A few days ago he had bad back pain, so I wonder if the leg pain is related. He has not left his bed in two days except to go to the bathroom. He can get the pain stabilized while laying in bed, but after getting up it is so painful he can hardly stand it. Sometimes his leg just starts shaking, and he gets chills while that is happening. He said the pain is so bad, it feels like it's in his bone.
