What Causes Internal Soreness In Leg And Upper Body?

I have been suffering with internal leg sores for about 4 months now, it started as just a few on one leg, by the first month my whole leg was covered with the internal lumpy sores, by 3 months the sores moved to the right leg and now the upper body, have already been tested for tb, erthyma nosdom was first diagnosis. I am worried its some type of disease but unknown at this time. What might it be?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have internal soreness in leg and upper body. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like nerve compression , diabetes , neuropathy or multiple Sclerosis . I would suggest you to do light stretching exercises along with gentle massage , apply warm compresses on entire leg or keep your legs in hot water tub with epsom salt in it and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain and inflammation . If condition doesn't get well then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination. Doctor may order blood test or RH factor , CT scan or MRI along with physical examination to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe methotrexate , anti inflammatory , gabapentin long with nerve supplement and recommend physical therapy .Also do light exercises like yoga and light walk .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
