what would cause pain in both legs from lower back down to feet? I have rls really bad at night and when I am on my feet for a while I feel like I can hardly hold myself up, I feel like my legs are giving out. I also am not able to sleep over 4 or 5 hours a night. My hips, knees and ankles ache.
Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you.a thorough clinical examination is advised As pain in bilateral legs is due to the pathology of the spine. As the spine releases called as the spinal nerve roots which when trapped leads to such symptoms. Also, the nerve as dual functions of sensory and motor too. Any mild compression on the nerve will lead to any of the symptoms like motor weakness or some sensory issues like pain which can be continuous in nature. Usually with physical therapy and proper vitamins supplement the symptoms can be reduced. As in my clinical practice we recommend a combination of Chat Doctor.  As there will be weakness of the muscles of the spine and core team strengthening of it is advised to stabilize the spine and release the compression from the nerve roots. Regards Jay In
