Hello! I just joined in need of advice.
I am Louise, I'm 18 and for the past 2 years I have been experiencing painful aches in my legs during the afternoon/night. It happens quite regularly, I'd say around about 2-3 times a week. It feels like a deep pain, not particularly a muscle pain but more of a bone related pain. The best way I can describe it is the same feeling as growing pains, only much worse. The pain sometimes affects my movement, it gets so painful where I can't move at all, or I can hardly walk. I have no swelling or redness at all, it isn't tender when pressure is put. It seems so phantom like.
I'm a bit nervous to get in contact with my GP, as I haven't had much positive experiences with most of the staff. I just don't want it to be shoveled under the carpet, especially since it's been happening for so long and has been so consistent.
Any kind of advice would be greatly appreciated. I most likely will get in contact with my GP, just nervous!
