I ache all over and have a weakness in my legs when I walk. It feels like they are going to buckle on me sometimes when I walk. This is a new condition over the last couple of weeks. Advil helps, but the conditions comes back when I don t take it. I am on no other medicine

hi,

thank you for providing the brief history of you.

As you feel that there is no motor control that it could be a nerve trapping in its course. As the nerve has the dual functions of motor control and sensory . So any entrapment of the nerve will lead to such Buckling of the knee while gait cycle.

Also, performing exercises under physical therapy should provide you better control of legs. Working out behind the core and the lower limbs should provide maximum control.

Also, in my clinical practice such patients are common and with physical therapy they respond well.
