NC leg pain can be quite severe or benign, and is usually derived from lower leg disorders. In order to narrow down the list of leg disorders, those with a history of trauma or overuse of the legs can reveal the cause. In older patients, leg pain (specifically of the calf area) should always suggest the possibility of deep vein thrombosis. This leg disorder is very serious, and unfortunately, it is usually difficult to differentiate from muscle strain, or minor swelling.
Exercise induced lower leg pain is common among athletes. The leg pain in the calf muscle comes from strain when the feet are imbalanced biomechanically.
By performing neurological and orthopaeding testing, and diagnostic radiography on patients, your chiropractor, Drs Kenton and Sara Lawson, will investigate the root cause of your leg pain. Then, the doctor of chiropractic will design a treatment plan specific to your case.
