What Can Cause Pain And Discomfort In The Legs While Walking?
Hi, was putting on a pair of jeans and, as I stepped in to them , my left leg seemed to get pulled. The inside of my leg aches as well as the back (by the bending joint) and I feel some pain and discomfort when walking. I put on a compressed bandage and that makes it feel better . Any ideas?

Hi,
It may be a ligament sprain or minor contusion.
You can apply ice packs for symptomatic relief and take analgesics like Acetaminophen or Tramadol also.
Generally, the symptoms will settle in a couple of days.
If symptoms persist, better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
