If you never really exercise or go for a walk, and then start walking long periods can that cause right leg pain, i'm not overweight ?

You don't have to be: overweight to experience leg pain from over walking or overexerting yourself when you start exercising after not doing it before.Usually, it's best to warm up, and do some stretching (leg) exercises, so you don't strain yourself when you first start out. Also, hydrate so you don't get cramps from dehydration, or electrolye deficiency.I see that you take caffeine tablets.That could dehydrate you 2.
