Question 1

i have a minor leg pain for the past 2 days after exercising ?

Accepted Answer

Need more: I will need more information to help you. Where? What kind of pain? What exercise are you doing?

Question 2

horrible lower leg pain immediately after exercising, what this is?

Accepted Answer

Many possibilities: It may just be low potassium or magnesium but any "horrible" pain should be evaluated asap.  See a doctor.

Question 3

feeling very weak in the legs after exercising? i feel great starting out. my stamina is down too.

Accepted Answer

See below.: This could be just exertion or it could be a sign of insufficient blood supply or a nerve irritation problem.  If it is just exertion and lack of conditioning it will get better with more exercise, but blood flow problems and nerve irritation problems will persist and get worse with time.

Question 4

bad lower leg pain immediately after exercising  but not during  active sports. any thoughts?

Accepted Answer

Depends on exercise.: It depends on gthe exercise you might have been doing.  Repetitive motion might put pressure on some joints and bones over time and cause pain, as well as the sudden relief of the action.  The muscles may need relief.  This might be a circulation issue or a plantar fasciitis issue with pain from weight on your foot and lower leg.  Sports make you use all your muscles, etc..  Be more diverse.

Question 5

do cardio walk & low impact leg exercises. after exercising i stretch my entire body for 20 minutes. why are my hamstrings sore despite stretching?

Accepted Answer

Muscle soreness: It could be normal for the muscle to become sore when the routine changes, or the exercise is strenuous enough to cause some lactic acidosis in the muscle tissue...One needs to be sure the hamstrings are the source of pain and that the pain does not result from back problems.

Question 6

please help! pain on my left leg and also a lump of something. could you explain the cause of this?

Accepted Answer

Can U Be  specific ?: Where in the leg is the lump? Leg is between the knee and ankle joints. It could be anything, arising from skin, fat, muscle or the bone. If its near a joint then it could be from joint tissues.
If there is any injury to it, then it could be a collection of blood or fluid, which will improve over 2 weeks time, otherwise you need to see a doctor to have it checked.

Question 7

i have a lump right above my leg crease in the hip area (not sure what that area is called exactly)it's been there 6 months and causes pain?

Accepted Answer

Lump: If it has been there for six months, be seen by an MD.  A few possible things it may be are a lymph node, a hernia, a sebaceous cyst, lipoma or carbuncle.

Question 8

lump under skin on thigh, painful to touch, causes whole leg to hurt, feels like fluid , caused from friend punching me & i've had it for about 7 week?

Accepted Answer

Hematoma: This could be a traumatic hematoma or area of tissue necrosis that may have become encapsulated or possibly even infected. It may be best to see a physician to have this imaged and/or drained or evacuated.

Question 9

im a 28 yr old male with right testical lump and pain it harts when i lean agaist my right leg what could be the cause that it harts i do a lot of lifting at my job

Accepted Answer

There : There are five reasons for a painful testicular mass that are very concerning:
- testicular torsion: when the testicle twists on itself and cuts off its blood supply, 
- testicular cancer
- epidiymitis: inflammation of the epididymus often caused by infection
- strangulated inguinal hernia
- acute orchitis: infection of the testes

other less concerning reasons for a testicular mass include hydrocele, varicocele, and spermatocele, but these tend to not be painful.

Bottom line:  you should call your doctor and be seen as soon as possible.  If you are having severe pain, fever,  and/or vomiting, you should go to the emergency room.

Question 10

what is the cause of swollen knees,small painful lumps and blotches on my legs?

Accepted Answer

: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. What you described warrants and in person evaluation. It would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
