I have severe pain in my lower legs with swelling and muscle strain, and it is not getting better even after using pain relief gel. What can help relieve this?
Severe lower leg pain with swelling and muscle strain that is not improving may be due to deeper muscle injury, fluid buildup, or poor circulation, so it needs proper attention. Rest your legs, keep them slightly raised, and you can use a cold or warm compress to ease pain and swelling. Avoid overuse and give the muscles time to recover. As it is not getting better with simple gel and swelling is present, talk to your doctor to find the exact cause and get the right treatment.
