Leg Pain
There are several potential causes of leg pain including arthritis,
arteriosclerosis, atherosclerosis, peripherial arterial disease and
thrombophlebitis. Often people experience pain while exercising and then it goes
away when they stop exercising. If this happens, you should see your physician.
Leg pain is not just a symptom of getting older. It could be related to a
serious problem. See your physician if you are experiencing leg pain. Treatment
may help you return to a more active lifestyle and prevent potentially
debilitating or deadly health problems, including amputation, heart attack or
stroke.
