What Causes Pain At The Back Of Legs?

I have a leg height difference of 21mm, and am being treated in Sydney Australia. Recently I have had sharp pains at the back of my legs and was unable to walk and had to sit down for a short while. It s painful at night when I try to turnover too. I am 63 but physically very active.

Ayurveda Specialist,  's  Response
It seems there is intermittent claudication. But I can't exclude it 100% until I am given more inputs like feeling of coldness in feet, condition post injury and whether by pressing over calf muscles do you get relief. I may be able to comment and tell some Ayurveda emedies which are non toxic, safe and side effect less. Investigation reports/ angiograms of lower limbs report may also help. In allopathy, if this is the condition you may be given 'duvadilon' type of med.

Hope you will give more info.
