What I understand from history is that you had a TB in the past which was taken care of by the physician and now you are out of it. This pain you get is not because of TB so please don't worry about it. It would have been good if you had mentioned about your age so it would have become easy to come closer to a conclusion. Also, mentioning about high blood pressure or diabetes would have been added advantage for us.
Well, now for this pain it can be due to uric acid may be but for this mee need to know if you have any other symptoms like burning of feet or tingling sensation. Also, the RA factor can be considered but we can only rule out this based on some blood and urine routine.
Kindly get some blood and urine routine so we can a clear picture. Treatment will follow with some medicines for 7 days and then exercise in overall to improve the venous return and improve muscle strength.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Jay Indravadan Patel, Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist
