We don't exactly: Know when d leg pain will disappear completely. The recovery depends on your body's response to hydration- drinking lots of water every day will facilitate recovery. Have your kidney function, electrolytes and cpk/ muscle enzyme monitored constantly until u recover completely. Tylenol (acetaminophen) may ease the pain. http://www.m.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/rhabdomyolysis-symptoms-causes-treatments?page=1.
