How To Cure Pain In Knee, Calf And Ankle?

I just started a new job and my feet become so painful after a couple of hours I can hardly walk. I got some orthodics for my shoes which seem to help. The problem now is that my knee hurts so bad that I can hardly walk on it. It feels like I have hyper-extended it and it hurts to straighten it out. Now the pain is moving into the calf and ankle.

hi,

thank-you for providing the brief history of you.

As you have pain in the calf and ankle, you need a thorough clinical examination.

As most pains are activity and stress induced. Which is like the fatigue in the muscles occurs due to a long standing and excess speed walking.

If your knee is hurting you need a thorough knee assessment as sudden onset of pain can be due to any ligament sprain.

also, performing some regular exercises should help you fight against slow metabolism and fatigue.

Also, in my clinical practice such cases respond well to general exercises. But if the pain still persist then keeping the age, work profile etc into consideration they are recommended to physical therapy.
