My muscles are sore long after a workout. is this healthy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sore muscles after w: You are young, and if you have no health issues, you may have some low back issues that are compressing your nerves that innervate your legs. This can happen without experiencing low back pain. You should see a neurologist to see if you are suffering from lumbo-sacral radiculopathy. You want to catch this problem earlier than later because the nerves will atrophy over time. Good Luck
