Pain in leg: Sometimes the sciatic nerve can become inflammed and the symptoms can be of pain "shooting" down the leg. It can take time for the swelling to go down. Over the counter anti-inflammatories, and ice can help

Vague symptoms.: This is a problem that will be easier to understand with more detailed information about the nature of the pain (sharp, burning, achy etc), when it first started, what might have triggered it, what makes it better and what have you tried to improve it. Have you had something like this before, how severe on a scale of 1-10 what makes it worse, movement or staying still? A doc can guide you, go 2 MD
