Gradual Movement Of Pain From The Right Upper Leg To Left Upper Leg, Rectum Down To Both Foot And In Both Elbows.

3 days ago I started getting pain in the back side only of my right leg between the knee and hip. High sensitivity to that area making the skin hurt type of feeling. On the 2nd day the pain was into my left leg also in the same exact place as the right leg and very sensitive to the touch and my rectum also was hurting. On the 3rd day the pain is all through out the back side of the left leg and goes all the way down the leg into the foot. The pain is gone how ever in the right leg now but the bottoms of both feet hurt. I am also dealing with pain in both elbows but no where else on the arms.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi there.

You seem to be suffering from polyarthralgia with radicular pain.
It means pain in multiple joints along with nerve root involvement.

Kindly get a complete arthritis panel blood test done along with Xray of the lower spine.
Get the results evaluated by an orthopedician.

For the time being you can take an anti arthritic like naproxen.
Pregablin will help suppress nerve pain.
I hope my advice has helped
Good luck
