Painful Walks
Hello people, I just wanna say that I will ask my general doctor when I go in for my appointment but was wondering if any of y’all can tell me anything about what I’ve been experiencing. For starters let me just say I’m a big fat (380 lbs) I went from not walking that much to being decently active this summer. I try to hit 5-7k steps a day, anyways about like a week ago I went on a hike that was more work than I planned for, which was nice. My legs for the first time were killing me after all the inclines. Work, where I normally rack up 6-7k steps has been mostly fine but on my off days when I go for walks has been a challenge. Something that has gotten so easy for me and was now hard to complete was downer. About halfway into my walk my lower legs (and feet) get really warm and tingle. They almost feel like dead weight. When I got home I accidently leaned forward and the front of lower leg was on fire, I also notice there’s some pain and tightness (?) in the back. This pain fades really quickly once I sit/lay down, like within minutes. But even after a few hours I can notice a pain in the back of my calf when I tilt my foot up. Is this normal muscle building or something?
