How To Get Rid Of The Pain In The Legs,shoulder And Neck?
I am 64, 5'5", 132 lbs. I have had leg problems for 10 years+. I have been diagnosed with RLS and also Spinal Stenosis. I get lumbar injections every 3 months. Helps my legs a little, but lately the pain is getting worse when I walk any distance. I have very sore calf muscles and knots from the ankle up to the knee in the back of both legs. Very little back pain. I also have shoulder and neck pain that I have had therapy on. Really didn't do anything. I am taking tramadol in the morning, afternoon and evening. That helps also but still have pain even to the touch. I have searched to web but of course it sounds like I have everything. Do you have any recommendations?

u have to change your lifestyle habits by avoiding vigorous and heavy work,exercise,or stress
please start with mild warming up exercises when u get up
elevate the limbs for about 30 degrees when u sleep
please wear a crepe bandage while at work or when you walk
continue with tablets of pregablin with methylcobalamine daily which will help for drastic improvement of the injured nerves
u can go ahead with cold laser therapy,to work wonders
take care
