Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Lower Leg

I have a pain in my back calf/lower leg off and on...seems to hurt exactly in the location where I cross my legs and my top leg sits on top of my other knee...it is not hot, not red...for the most part I can stand up, uncross my legs and work the cramp like pain out. Only occasionally does it hurt at night when i go to bed. Today the blood clot possibility entered my mind

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to a strained muscle.

I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.

I also recommend using Voltaren gel for local application.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
