What Causes Pain In Leg Along With Difficulty Walking?
All afternoon, I've had pains in my left leg - sometimes just the foot, other times the left hip, and sometimes the entire leg. I also had difficulty walking and was "leaning" to the right. I looked in a full-length mirror and I definitely was leaning toward the right. I saw for a while and rested; now I feel OK except for a slight pain in my left hip. What could be causing this? Thanks.

hi I understand your concern. it may be due to strain in your hip due to unaccoustomed weight bearing in your left leg .It could also be a musculoskeletal pain due to myalgia .very rarely it could be a left hip arthralgia. since you rested and pain has subsided you need not worry.Apply analgesic cream or hot fomentation.If pain is reccuring you consult an orthopedician and do a workup for pain. Hope you will be allright
