A member asked:
My legs are in extreme pain the day after playing badminton intensely. when will this feeling ware off or how can i treat it to reduce the pain?

NSAID and heat: It seems that you do not play regularly and when you do it is excessive. You possibly tear some muscle fibers leading to pain. If you get CPK levels during the pain and if it is significantly high, it will confirm muscle injury. Anti inflammatory meds. And heat to legs will help.
