Pain in my legs with tingling - vera

Do you have history of back problems? I have the same problem and I have had 2 back surgeries and still need another one since I have been diagnosed again with severe right foraminal stenosis. I am just tolerating it. If you can get it checked out because it may be coming from your back. Those nerves go all the way to the toes. I wish you luck and hope you get better. Some diabetic patients have these symptoms too. Do not wait too long to have it looked at. I do not wish that pain on anyone.

I sometimes get pain in the backs of my legs where they hit my office chair. I talked to my doctor about it and it just due to the pressure of your legs against the chair when sitting for long periods of time. She told me to do massage, get up and stretch every so often, and if needed put a heating pad under my legs from time to time. Hope this helps!

At least once per hour...sm - weird

I know a lot will disagree, but I've found it helpful to just stand up and walk around for a few minutes. I do this once every hour or hour and a half. It helps me relieve the pressure.

Good luck.

I agree with that - getting up every so often is excellent!

Hi, everyone. I'm sure that this is a common problem in the transcription field, but I was hoping someone had some sort of remedy.

It's right at the second knuckle on the digit and it's starting to become problematic. Any suggestions from more experienced MTs? Thanks. ...
