Hi i have constant pain in my back legs and feet. My knee are also very sore. I have difficulgy sitting or standing for longer than a few minutes and walking seems to increase my pain. I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis fibromyalgia and osteoporisus but am still concerned. What do u think could be the cause of my leg and foot pain.thanks Dianne.
Not fibromyalgia. If it does exist as a disease then it is an overall, everywhere disorder of pain. By definition, there cannot be anything wrong/broken for fibromyalgia. Osteoarthritis and osteoporosis are shown on x-rays (or not). But, if kicking straight out causes pain, then a bad back with a pinched nerve is the cause. The nerve goes out the back and down the back of the leg and around the hip and pain sensations are felt all along the nerve path. But you wouldn't see abnormal knee/hip with a bad back because it is the back and the nerve and not the skeletal structures elsewhere.
