A member asked:

I've been having pain & weakness in my lower legs and soreness in upper thigh. feels as if i've been exercising all day but haven't. any suggestions?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need to be evaluated: Leg soreness and weakness can be from many things. Important things to rule out however are muscle disease including myositis/myopathy. Peripheral nerve problems or even spinal stenosis can cause similar leg symptoms. A good neurological physical exam is the place to start to better focus the work up.
