What Causes Pain In Thigh Radiating To Calf Region?
I have pain in my left leg,that goes from my outer thigh to my outer calf. I did not fall or get injured in any way. The pain started out like a strained hip. Then it s gradually went from my hip all the way down to my calf. I ve had lower back pain in the past. I noticed that it s more painful when I stand for a short period of time. Could this be my sciatic nerve giving me the pain?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, of course it could be sciatica but to confirm this one has to get done the imaging study, till then try to maintain good posture and try "Tab Diclofenac 50 mg" once in day hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day
