What Is A Persistent Dull Pain In Left Thigh And Calf Suggestive Of?
Hello, I seem to have a constant dull pain in my left thigh down to my calf, and sometimes in my right calf. My left leg is very stiff after sitting for awhile, sometimes it causes a problem going up stairs. I can still bike ride and do a lot of walking and it doesn t seem to bother me then. Trying to get comfortable relaxing or in bed takes awhile. Thank you

Hello,
The problem is likely in the back which is causing compression of nerves of thigh n calf originating in back. You require an MRI of back to look for the cause.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
