What Causes Heaviness In Feet And Pain In Knee?

When I awake each morning my feet feel heavy. After I start walking it goes away. My right leg has start experience pain, which would go away when I start to walk. When I sit, bending my knee it hurts (going down the back of my leg between the thigh and calf) When I elevate my leg it stops. Lately it is hard to get comfortable when elevating it.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, looking to the history given here I could say that this could be due to some circulatory disturbances particularly venous return, in my opinion better to get done the Doppler study till then try to keep the leg in elevated positions, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
