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.
