Leg Pain... any help?

So... it started with the varicose veins, then the sciatica... which I could handle. Then last week I started getting leg aches (sort of like growing pains were when I was little) and now the swelling has really set in and my legs just ache and hurt ALL DAY! 

I've been wearing the compression hose for the past couple days, and I'm trying to drink water and put my legs up on a box under my desk. But it's not really helping. I officially feel like crap and really need to figure out how to make this leg pain lessen up a little. Anyone have any advice other than what I'm already trying?

Re: Leg Pain... any help?

  • I had various pains while pregnant and have been seeing a chiropractor for the past couple months and it's changed my life. I told him about the leg pain and he re adjusted me and it was gone! He uses a different technique not cracking the back and specializes in preparing pregnant women for birth. There are so many benefits - i didn't believe it but can't believe it I went without it before.

  • I don't know about compression hose, but I've started wearing compression socks. The kind used by athletes and they're amazing! I bought a pair of CEP's all sport (without the feet, so ankle to knee, I was getting terrible charley-horses) and wear them to bed, biking, and anytime I know I'm going to be out awhile or on my feet a lot. I've also started prenatal yoga.
