I get pain in my left leg after walking, standing, or exerting myself for a few hours. My right leg is fine. What could be the cause, and which specialist should I consult?
Dr Chandrakanth Jena

Pain in one leg after activity may be caused by muscle strain, irritated tendons or ligaments, nerve compression, circulation problems, or joint issues such as arthritis. You should consult an orthopaedic doctor or a physiotherapist, who can examine your leg and recommend exercises, physiotherapy, or other treatments to relieve pain and prevent it from worsening.
