SWELLING IN LEGS

Asked for Male, 34 years

I walked for around 10 km 4 days back. I am not a habitual walker. I felt cramp twice in my right leg during first 3 km and after stretching it was better. Then I consumed fair amount of water. But, after 24 hours I got severe pain in calf muscles and there is slight swelling. Please suggest some medication or exercise. This has been constantly disturbing me for the last 3 days. Kindly help.

Dear Patient,

Sometimes, when one doesn't walk much and indulges in strenuous or long walk then muscles can hurt a lot. Take CAc-1000 for two weeks and see if this helps. Please attach a photo of your swollen calves so we can assess it.
Apply slightly warm olive oil on the area twice a day and firmly wrap a medical bandage around it for a few hours to relieve your muscles of their pain. You may take ponstan forte twice daily to relieve the pain for one week. If symptoms don't improve please see a specialist in the clinic.
