Leg pain

Hi, I have a deep awful pain in my left leg, been back and forwards to docs for months, I have arthritis in my hip but this pain emanates from my pelvic area and down the front of my leg. Only relief albeit slight is when I stand as it’s very painful laying down and now sitting.

I am not a worrier normally but this pain is bothering me, last week my doc gave me Naproxen but it’s having  no effect.

  • Hello FoxtonJ, 

    Thank you for posting. I can appreciate that it must be worrying for you if you don’t feel that your problems are being diagnosed properly.  Unfortunately, we cannot help you get a diagnosis.  Only a doctor can diagnose you.  If you are unhappy with the way you are being looked after by your current doctor you may want to consider getting yet another opinion and you can find out more about this here.

    I hope you find the reassurance you need. 

    Best wishes,
