Symptoms of Leg Pain
Leg pain can present in different ways depending on the underlying cause, including:

- Numbness or weakness in the leg muscles.
- Swelling, redness, or warmth in the affected area.
- Difficulty walking or standing for long periods.
- Cramping or muscle spasms.
Common Causes of Leg Pain
Leg pain can be triggered by a variety of conditions, including:
- Sciatica: A condition caused by the compression of the sciatic nerve, leading to sharp pain that radiates from the lower back down through the leg.
- Peripheral Neuropathy: Nerve damage, often related to diabetes or other underlying conditions, causing burning, tingling, or numbness in the legs.
- Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): A blood clot in the deep veins of the leg can cause pain, swelling, and redness.
- Muscle Strain: Overuse or injury to the muscles in the leg can lead to pain, tightness, and limited range of motion.
- Arthritis: Osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can cause pain in the knee, hip, or ankle joints, leading to discomfort in the legs.
- Herniated Disc: A slipped or herniated disc in the spine can compress nerves that travel to the legs, resulting in leg pain.
- Tendonitis: Inflammation of the tendons in the leg, often due to overuse, can cause pain and stiffness.
