FL leg pain that is caused by lower leg conditions can be harmless, or life threatening. In order to narrow down the list of leg disorders, those with a history of trauma or overuse of the legs can reveal the cause. In older patients, leg pain (specifically of the calf area) should always suggest the possibility of deep vein thrombosis. This potentially life threatening disorder is not always easily differentiated from a minor traumatic swelling or muscle strain.
Exercises is one of the causes of lower leg pain for athletes. Biomechanical imbalances at the foot level will often strain the calf musculature resulting in leg pain.
To determine the specific cause of the leg pain you’re experiencing, the chiropractor, Dr Brandon Perkins DC, will require you to undergo orthopaedic, neurological, and diagnostic testing, and go through your health history. Then, the doctor of chiropractic will design a treatment plan specific to your case.
