What causes leg numbness?

Every time people experience numbness and soreness in their legs, they don’t pay attention to it. They think they will feel better after a few minutes of rest. However, this situation occurs repeatedly in daily life, which can cause great trouble to others. It may even be caused by some diseases that are difficult to cure. This is a very obvious health problem, so you must pay more attention to exercise and try to improve this situation.

reason:

Calf pain is a common health problem, especially in daily life and exercise. There are many causes of calf pain, such as poor circulation in the calves of the elderly, diabetes, peripheral vascular disease or varicose veins, or a sudden cold environment. Some patients may also suffer from osteoporosis and calcium deficiency, which can also cause calf pain. Of course, there are some people, such as pregnant women, patients with thyroid disease, or other neurological diseases, who may also experience calf pain. Some medications can also cause muscle soreness, especially in the calves.

Calf pain often occurs after suddenly participating in an activity or exercise, such as sitting at home looking at the computer for a long time, sitting in the office for a long time, or increasing the amount of activity in a short period of time. The next day, you will find that your calves are sore and your calves are sore and swollen. This is often because we don't exercise enough in our daily lives, and after a short period of muscle activity, a lot of lactic acid is produced. When the lactic acid is deposited in the muscles, we feel soreness. After a few days, the pain will be significantly relieved. Therefore, the problem of calf pain needs to be treated differently.

In addition, patients with lumbar spondylosis and cervical spondylosis may also experience calf pain. The symptoms are that after walking or standing for a long time, the calves feel like they are filled with lead, and they need to sit there and rest for a while before they feel better. However, after walking or exercising again, calf soreness appears again. This is often caused by lumbar spinal stenosis or lumbar disease leading to calf soreness. If this happens, the patient needs to go to the hospital for an X-ray or MRI to check whether there is any lesion in the lumbar spine.

But if the muscle soreness is caused by exercise, don't worry. It will be relieved after a few days of rest. You can exercise regularly, but don't do sudden and large-scale exercise. As long as we exercise more formally and regularly, calf pain may occur less frequently or be well relieved.
