help - with leg thigh muscle pain

Magnesium supplements, heating pad, soaking in warm epsom salt baths, gentle stretching/exercise have all been helpful for muscle pain. Also, there is a homeopathic remedy called Arnica Montana that has been helpful for some muscle pain (available at local health food stores or online). I use the oral pellets, they work better for me than the topical Arnica gel.

I get those too. For me, it feels almost like sciatica, but a little different. Starts in the butt to mid thigh. I had have back problems and had surgery so I have just been thinking it was more related to my back. But now that you mention it, I'm gonna pay closer attention. I am thinking of trying the magnesium too. Stretching is probaby a safe thing to try. I stretch out on my swiss excersize ball. One thing that helps is to sit on the ball and lean back into a backbend. Or kneel on the floor and ease into a gentle backbend (google camel yoga pose). Flexing back might help stretch the front of your thigh. Google hamstring stretches too, they might help. Hope you feel better!

but ofcourse shoulder hurts now, but yall know that already. one symptom after another. this is lyme.

i have a lot of trouble with legs i find sleeping to help and magnesium good idea too

Btw, I have been having bad leg pains too. The magnesium helped at the beginning but it is starting to hurt again. Something else that causes leg pain is a bladder infection and I thought I'd let you all know, just to be safe. I think that may be where my pain is coming from. I get bad bladder infections every few months.

No problem. I like covering all of the bases just in case someone is going through the same thing I am. It's always better to be safe then sorry.

Hi Kendal.

It's in pill form. They are little white pellets. No, I don't think she uses the cream.
