Muscle problems, leg pain and swelling. The first thing to consider is the calf muscle problem. One is heavy work, overloaded physical exercise, and staying in a posture for a long time will cause fibrosis, necrosis and fibrosis of calf muscles. The other is traumatic factors, which can also cause muscle soreness. There is also the sudden and involuntary tonic contraction of calf muscles caused by calcium deficiency, which will also bring pain and discomfort to the calf after this injury.
After a long-distance running, I didn't do stretching and relaxation exercise, which led to sore calf muscles. Especially when standing in one posture for a long time, it is very obvious.
For its diagnosis, it is mainly through pressing physical examination.
Treatment: 1. Rest and reduce the stimulation to it. 2. Local hot compress can promote blood circulation. 3. Massage, which is the basis of treatment. 4. Exercise properly. 5. Calcium deficiency can be supplemented.
Nerve problems When the nerves that dominate the calf are compressed, they can also cause pain and discomfort in the calf. More common: 1. Lumbar disc herniation, compression of sciatic nerve leads to leg pain. 2. Neck or chest problems can also lead to this symptom of the calf, but most of them are bilateral calves. 3. piriformis syndrome is also caused by sciatic nerve compression. 4. The injury of hamstring muscle will compress the posterior tibial nerve, which will also lead to calf discomfort.
For its diagnosis, we must improve our understanding and try our best to make a clear diagnosis in the hospital.
Treatment: 1. Relieve the compression on nerves. 2. Physiotherapy methods such as massage, massage, acupuncture and moxibustion can be used locally. 3. Oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs and drugs for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. 4. Nutritional neurodrug therapy. 5. Surgical treatment. 6. Pay attention to the exercise of related muscles.
Vascular problems When there is a problem with the artery or vein of the calf, it will cause blood circulation disorder of the calf. Nutrition can't pass, and waste can't be taken away. It can also cause pain and discomfort in the lower leg. For example, varicose veins or vein blockage lead to blood reflux disorder, waste can not be taken away, and swelling of lower limbs occurs. Arterial embolism leads to blood supply failure and nutritional failure. However, arterial problems are generally accompanied by severe pain, and the pain points are fixed.
Its diagnosis is mainly through color Doppler ultrasound examination.
How to handle it: 1. Improve blood circulation and pay attention to local heat preservation. 2. Use drugs and anticoagulants to improve circulation. 3. Perform surgical treatment when necessary.
Besides these, there are other reasons, so I won't explain them here. I hope these can help everyone.
