Subject: Re: leg pain When I get up in the morning, I cannot put my foot on the ground because of pain on the soles of my feet. This pain is similar to the pain one feels when you walk for a very long time. When I walk for some time, I feel pain behind both knees . There seems to be a slight swelling there but there is no pain on touch. While walking , I feel a muscle pull mostly on the left leg. There is pain at certain points around the middle portion of my thighs when touched and sometimes I feel it while walking too. I have been to a neurologist and they did take an electromyograph but it seemed normal Everybody seems baffled by my problem. Please help !!

There are several possible differential diagnosis for each of your symptoms: - Morning foot discomfort: one should consider the possibility of - Pain behind knees after exertion: The EMG studies that you had done would only be diagnostic for neuromuscular I hope this information is helpful.
