Suggest Treatment For Severe Leg Pain
I am a 47 year old female. Non smoker, drink rarely. I am very active and have had great health. About a week ago I began experiencing pain in my entire right leg. Its a deep, aching pain that feels as if it is in my leg bones. Nothing seems to relieve it. I ve tried ibuprofin, heat, resting it. It is becoming difficult to even sleep. Any suggestions on where I should start with this? Thank you.

Hi
History suggests you got problem in spinal disc which is compressing the neural element. It can start due to injury or lifting weight. Get an mri done to confirm the diagnosis. Start physiotherapy and avoid heavy exertion.
Thanks
