What Is Remedy For The Pain In The Knees With Sore Legs And High Blood Pressure?
My mother has been experiencing sore legs over last few months however today is unable to walk. While sitting the pain doesnt seem to be there. She has severe pain running down back of thighs to her knees. She was recently taken off her high blood pressure medicine, which stayed normal a week or so and today is now very high again. She is 72 and has been very active and well most off her life, an ultrasound ruled out any clots, her dr took blood but seems to be a bit clueless as to what it could be. We are doing an oversea trip in 2weeks however am concerned taking her if all not well

Hi,
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.
There could be several causes for those sore legs and difficulty in walking. It is very difficult to comment on the exact cause of that without having any investigation reports or without examining her. If she is having such sore legs and difficulty in walking and her doctor is not in a position to arrive at a diagnosis consider a second opinion.
Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
