A member asked:
What can you do with muscular legs that hurt when i run?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stretch: Take more time before and after u run to stretch, esp. Your hamstrings, quads, calf muscles and hip( groin).Try taking an Ibuprofen or similar over the counter NSAID before u run.Ice muscle groups that are most 'sore' for 20-30 min.After a run. As u get more proficient w/ running your soreness should gradually go away. If it doesn't see your physician. Best of luck!
