Hi , It is 7 months that I am suffering from lower back pain, Heap pain, knee pain which goes down all the way on my left leg. Sometimes it moves from one part to the other above areas that I mentioned. I am almost limping! I was very active person in walking, Zumba, etc. The doctor say it might be Osteoartheritis?

Hi,
Thanks for your query.
your pain is due to Arthritis. When bone is not able to take weight due to arthritis than it has to be shared by muscles. It causes pain in thigh and calf muscles.
Also some time it can be due to nerve compression. You can judge your self. If your pain increases on walking and relieved with rest, it is suggestive of nerve related pain.
Arthritis pain is present even when you are taking rest.

I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
