What's wrong with weak legs?

Generally, when people experience weak legs, it is mostly when they are physically tired. It may also be due to some illness that causes the body to be weak, causing the legs to feel weak when walking. But no matter what the cause of the weak legs is, it will seriously affect people's lives and work. If the weak legs are caused by some diseases, untimely treatment will only make the harm it brings worse.

If the weak legs are caused by excessive fatigue, generally no special treatment is required, and a simple rest and massage can solve the problem. However, if the weak legs are caused by rheumatic bone disease, treatment is necessary to solve the problem. The specific contents of what is going on with weak legs are as follows:

1. Long-term compression of the waist

Long-term incorrect sitting or sleeping posture can lead to back pain and weak legs. Long-term bending over when working, excessive burden on the waist, etc. will cause pain and soreness in the waist, making it difficult to stand upright, which will lead to poor blood flow in the legs and cause symptoms of weakness. If this continues for a long time, it will soon lead to sore waist and weak legs.

2. Lumbar injury

At work, especially when doing physical labor, it is particularly easy to cause accidental injuries to the waist. If the injury is not treated promptly or is not treated thoroughly, it will lead to chronic injuries and pain in the lumbar sacral region. Over time, the kidney qi will be weak and the essence will be insufficient. It is easy to catch cold, which will cause poor blood flow to the waist, nerve paralysis, etc., resulting in sore waist and weak legs.

3. Lumbar disc herniation

The main symptoms of lumbar disc herniation are low back pain, accompanied by sciatica, which may radiate to the calves or feet, causing problems in the legs. There may also be radiating pain, which weakens the sensation in the legs, leading to decreased toe muscle strength and inability to stand up. Therefore, when you experience back pain and weak legs, you must pay attention to whether there is radiating pain in the legs, find out as soon as possible whether it is lumbar disc herniation, and treat it early.

Now that we know what causes weak legs, if the condition causing the weak legs is one of the three diseases mentioned above, in order to solve the problem, it is best to treat these diseases first. Only by starting treatment from the root can the patient completely get rid of the weak legs and the patient's body can be completely restored to health.
