Suggest Treatment For Tingling, Numb And Painful Legs

My legs below my knees feel tingly and kind of numb, but are very painful. I did just come back from a trip on Sunday, but they didn t feel this way till Tuesday morning. There are painful like ropes in the back of my legs. Nothing seems to help. The pain was bad enough I could not even sleep much last night.

Hi

Dehydration and excessive muscle strain due to travel could be the cause of numbness and pain in legs.

Adequate hydration is required to relieve the symptoms.Serum electrolytes and blood sugar and blood pressure can be measured.Oral rehydration solutions can be used to reduce the symptoms.

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