    Every human being experiences pain in the legs and feet at some point in life. This pain is sometimes caused by an injury and sometimes by excessive walking or fatigue. There are many causes of leg and foot pain in men and women, so let’s have a look at them in this health blog.

    Things that Can Lead to Leg or Foot Pain

    Leg and Foot Pain

    Among the risk factors for leg and foot discomfort are:

    • Old age
    • Genetics
    • Incorrect posture
    • Going heavy labor, sports, and military service

    You can consult with the Best Orthopedic Specialists in Lahore for these problems from the comfort of your home now via Marham.

    1. Vitamin B12 Deficiency

    In this situation, there is a frequent tingling sensation in the legs, itching in the feet, and repeated tremors. It usually occurs when a person sits down or lies down to sleep. A lack of vitamin B-12 may result in this tingling sensation in the hands or feet. This symptom develops because the vitamin is essential for the nervous system, and its lack might lead to nerve conduction difficulties or nerve injury. People who smoke or take certain nerve-damaging drugs may be affected by the problem, as well as pregnant women.

    2. Spinal Cord Problems

    Lower back pain may affect the nerve roots of the spinal cord, resulting in leg and foot pain. Inflamed or compressed nerve roots in the lumbar or sacral spine can produce radiculopathy or nerve pain in the leg and foot, often known as sciatica. Nerves in the leg may also be injured, resulting in peripheral neuropathy and leg pain. Also, read more about the Top Five Reasons You Should Visit A Physiotherapist.

    3. Pain in the Shins and Heels

    Leg and Foot Pain

    When you keep your feet down on the bed after waking up, you may experience pain in the shins and heels. The most common cause of pain is in overweight people or women who regularly use heeled shoes. You may be more likely to get heel pain if you:

    • Are obese or overweight
    • Have arthritis in your feet and ankles, flat feet, or high foot arches.
    • In sports or for exercise, you may run or jump a lot.
    • Spend a significant amount of time standing, particularly on concrete floors.
    • Wear shoes that are ill-fitting and/or lack arch support and/or cushion.

    4. Pain in the Front of One Leg

    If there is pain in the front part of the leg and burning pain in the lower back, then it might mean that it is sciatic pain caused by the compression of the vein in the seals of the spinal cord. If you are experiencing this pain, you should immediately contact an orthopedic doctor, who will prescribe you medicine or physiotherapy.

    5. Deep Vein Thrombosis

    Leg and Foot Pain

    Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot in the deep vein of the leg that causes a decrease or change in blood flow. Blood vessels can also rupture and cause bleeding in the tissues of the leg, which can lead to severe pain and swelling. It is not serious if the blood clot stays in the leg, but it can lead to severe problems if it travels to the lungs.

    Other Causes of foot pain and numbness

    There are conditions that can cause pain and numbness in the feet as well as leg pain. Some of these issues are:

    • Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
    • Trauma
    • Inflammation
    • Enlarged arteries or veins
    • Poor-fitting shoes
    • Tendon problems
    • Scar tissue from tumors or tight boots can compress the sciatic nerve.
    • Compression of the sciatic nerve and radiculopathy of the lower back.

    According to the Health Direct Organization, the treatment for leg pain is determined by the underlying cause. Leg pain can easily be handled at home, but if the pain is sudden, severe, or persistent, or if there are accompanying symptoms, medical treatment may be required.
