Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Hard to say: Multiple potential causes and hard to say more with out reviewing results of test already done. Among most common causes are vascular, neurological, and rheumatologist disorders. Don't hesitate to get second opinion if you are not getting specific diagnosis.
