What causes sore, tight & tired legs?
Patient: Yes, thank you, for about the last week or so, when i walk, my legs feel sore, tight & tired. I m always very active and exercise but I did stop working out about 2 mos. ago due to my schedule but I still exercise just not at the gym. Also last weekend I got really sick at the lake with motion sickness and as of today I still feel a bit queasy. My major concern are my legs, they just feel tight, like I need to stretch them out before I walk. Yesterday I mowed my lawn and I had to literally push myself to complete the front lawn. This has never happened before, i m about 15 lbs overweight but this has never been a problem for me before, plus I do have a bit of vertigo. . Doctor: Hello,  Do some gentle stretching before your walk/movements. Try to reduce Protein, Carbs and Fats intake, so that you don't gain weight. Check Vitamin D & Serum Uric Acid levels.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr Saurabh Singh Rajan, Sports Medicine Specialist
