Leg pain w/ loads: Yes, possibly . Sometimes sciatica manifest in the leg and not the back. Would avoid head loads . heavy back packs. Consider kinesiotape, PT for strengthening exercises.stretches, massage. Check arches for flat feet and use orthodics. http://ergonomics.about.com/od/ergonomicsforchildren/ss/bpweightchart.htm

Leg pain: You probably have something going on in your lower back. You are too young for this pain.Have it checked by a specialist. Good luck

I have somehow injured my left ankle. I'm not sure if it is sprained, or there's a hairline fracture, as it's so painful even to bear weight on it or walk. I am limping very badly. It is very swollen, bruised and tender to the touch. Please help me?
