I cant stand straight!!!!

Post by hollypop18 »

Hey guys,

Does anyone get shooting pain in the backs of their legs when theyve either stood or sat for too long or sometimes a short amount of time? I can never get my legs stright either because it hurts. does anyone else get this? Ive been told its because of the muscles in my legs.

Hi Holly

I also get this,especially when standing for a long time,it's a pain in the neck and I'm also convinced it's down to the muscles in my leg,especially in my left leg which definantley gets the worst of the pain.

I've got tight hamstrings and this causes pain in my right leg. I now go to the gym twice a week and the pain is nearly gone.

I don't get any pains or nothing from standing or walking. The only problem I have is I tend to find if I stay in one spot standing up for awhile, I eventually lose my balance and fall over. I mean, how can you do that standing straight! :P

I assumed it to be sciatica. It's not.
Basically I got told to stop whinging...
