Long term chronic leg pain.

[Punkin99]

I'm a 23 yo f, and I've had this pain in my pegs since I was young (7, 8, maybe 9 years old) I have been to several doctors through the years. I've had my entire lower body examined, X-ray's, walking tests, all sorts of things I don't necessarily remember. All the doctors tell me something different. Every time I treat what they say is wrong, nothing changes. One podiatrist told me there is no reason for my pain. It starts in my knees and slowly moves toward my thigh and shine. Some days it's in both legs, some days it's only in one. Some times it starts midday, other times it starts at night. I'm tired of hurting. I'm tired of not knowing.

Hello~

If you tests have a good outcome, then I suggest seeing a chiropractor, you may have some pinched nerves in your lower back causing these issues.

No problem. An Interventional Radiologist is a good doctor to go see for this condition.

Doctors have never checked my veins, it's a good place to start. Thank you so much!

You could get checked for a condition that I have called May- Thurner Syndrome. It's a common but rarely diagnosed condition that most doctors don't think of as a diagnosis. I was having pain in both legs but mostly left leg and they felt tired and heavy. After having a stent placed in my left iliac vein all the pain went away. I would recommend getting checked for this to rule it out as a possibility.
