Persistent discomfort or weakness in your legs? Our expert leg pain treatment in Higham Ferrers is designed to relieve symptoms and restore mobility.
Has the pain in your leg, knee, ankle or foot stopped you from walking properly? Is it causing your other leg to ache because it’s taking all the weight? Are you fed up with limping and depending on people to help you get around?
Pain in your leg is frustrating, and can change the way you move so that other areas start to ache too.
We see all sorts of lower limb problems, from sciatica to heel pain. And we know that the first thing you need is a diagnosis. You need to know what is causing the pain, which muscles, joints, ligaments or cartilage are damaged, and what you can do about it – or whether it’s something completely different that needs specialist investigations.
Things we regularly treat in the clinic:
Sciatica – If the pain shoots down the back of your leg it could be sciatica.
Hip pain – If you’ve pulled a muscle or over-strained it you can end up with pain that radiates into the neck and shoulders. You might find it aches until you turn to one side, at which point the pain becomes much worse.
Knee pain – meniscal tears, ligament injuries, osteoarthritis and strains are things we see every day in the clinic.
Calf pain – It’s common for calf muscles to be torn during sport, but you can damage them by running for a bus too.
Surgery – We all know we should do rehab after surgery, but are you doing the right exercises?
Ankle pain – Recovery from sprained ankles or ankle injuries can be slow. Make sure you’re doing the right things to get back to walking and running.
Foot pain – The joints, ligaments and tendons in your foot might need treatment to get better.
