What Might Cause Shooting Pain Along With Cramps In The Legs And Lower Back/hip?
I have been experiencing pain, cramping and shooting pains in my legs and lower back/hip pain also. I have been off my Lovastatin for 2 weeks and slowly seems to be getting better. Should I stay off it longer or am I barking up the wrong tree on this? Thanks.....Pat B.

Hello,
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
