Question 1

my back went out and i still have paine on  my leg?

Accepted Answer

Doctor can evaluate: A back problem that includes leg pain should be evaluated by a primary care doctor, who can then refer the patient to a physical therapist, orthopedic doctor (regular or back specialist), pm&r doctor (physical medicine & rehabilitation), and/or neurology doctor. The leg pain may be due to pressure on nerves coming out of the spine, which can lead to permanent leg problems if not corrected soon.

Question 2

i have 5 briuces in a row on my leg, they were there last week but went now back again?

Accepted Answer

Depends on cause...: If a person has bruises with no know cause (not hitting a bike pedal, not running into coffee tables), the a primary care doctor can evaluate to see if there are problems such as fragile capillaries (the tiny blood vessels in the skin break too easily), medication effects (such as too much blood thinning meds), blood clotting deficiencies (bone marrow or liver problems), etc...

Question 3

yesterday i slid at volleyball and my leg went out in front of me.  i now have a pain that is on and off.  i don't know what to do and it hurts?

Accepted Answer

Knee gives out: It is time to be evaluated by an orthopedic surgeon with an expertise in sports injuries. It sounds as if you may have a collateral ligament injury but there are numerous other ligament or tendon injuries that may be responsible. It is likely that an MRI will be required to confirm the diagnosis.

Question 4

i'm in pain on my leg?

Accepted Answer

Leg pain: You are describing a symptom, not a cause. Appropriate treatment requires that the cause be delineated via examination, medical history review, medication survey, appropriate lab tests, and possibly imaging. In other words, see your General Physician or Urgent Care to begin the diagnostic process.

Question 6

Lactic: Acid build up, electrolyte deficiencies . Dehydration.

Question 7

what are some good leg workouts?

Accepted Answer

Variety: This depends partially on what you are trying to accomplish. Aerobic options may include running, skating, rollerblading, cycling, and swimming. For exercises try some variation of a squat or lunge. These exercises can be done quickly, anywhere, and with or without additional weights.

Question 8

what could cause pain in the leg?

Accepted Answer

Hip arthritis: Degenerative hip arthritis (a variant of djd, degenerative joint disease) is common.  Chronic standing stresses the hip joint with the femoral head in the acetabulum (i.e., ball & socket).  The erosion of the bursa within the joint eventually causes pain.  Other causes which need exclusion are neurogenic and vascular causes.  Herniated discs refer to the former; aorta-iliac disease, the latter.

Question 9

can i pop my leg back into place?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: If you have dislocated one of the joints in your leg (hip, knee, ankle) then you need to see a doctor to have it evaluated and properly treated. Trying to take care of it yourself will likely result in making things worse.

Accepted Answer
