What is causing my leg pain?

Leg pain is a common complaint that we see as Chiropractors. There are lots of different causes for this, some easier to identify than others. But did you know that the pain can originate and refer from lots of different areas of the body. This is where it can get a little more confusing… So let me shed some light on this common, but often puzzling symptom.

Local Pain

Yes, let’s start with the glaringly obvious. Leg pain can indeed come from the leg. This can be foot, ankle, calf, knee, hip or thigh pain. It can originate from your joints, ligaments, muscles, tendons or bones, among other causes. It can be caused by repetitive strain, overuse, wear and tear, trauma, change in activity or lifestyle, biomechanics and many other things.

Treatment for this type of complaint will vary. It will depend on the extent of the injury, what tissues are involved and what is causing it. But overall, treatment will likely involve identifying what is hurting, why it is hurting, making temporary or long term adaptations to allow for healing and prevent re-injury, treating the injury itself AND that pesky underlying cause.

Referred Pain

Sometimes, however, the pain does not come directly from the area you feel it. So, for example, you may feel pain in the leg when there is no injury or abnormality in the leg itself. This can be caused by referred pain. Referred pain can have a number of causes. This can include nerve irritation or compression (which I will cover later). It can also be due to convergence of different nerves at various points throughout their path.

Pain occurs when a signal is sent from a nerve in a certain body part, to the brain, and the brain then creates a pain signal. Nerves follow a very complex path up through the spinal cord and into the brain where they are registered in different areas. Their path includes lots of crossing over, merging, separating and synapsing. So, when nerves eventually reach the brain, they may not consist of exactly the same nerve fibres that they started with and the exact body part which that nerve represents can be ambiguous. When the brain then creates a pain sensation, it may not know exactly where the “problem” is, and the pain can be felt in areas not specific to the injury or abnormality itself.

There are a few body parts which can commonly cause referred pain in the leg.

The Sacroiliac Joint

Also known as your pelvic joint or the joint between your sacrum (at the bottom of the spine) and your ilia (pelvis bones), the sacroiliac joint can cause referred pain down the back of the leg, usually only down to the knee level. This can be caused by a sprain injury to the joint, hypermobility or stiffness.

Treating this will involve rest and rehabilitation if it is a new injury, to avoid further aggravation. Mobilising the joint if it is restricted, treating the muscles around the joint and usually strengthening those muscles to help keep the pelvis strong and happy.

The Hip Joint

Another possible cause of referred pain to the leg is your hip joint. There are lots of injuries which can occur within the hip joint. Such as a fracture, labral (cartilage) tear and ligament or joint capsule injury. There may be longer standing abnormalities within the hip joint such as dysplasia or femoroacetabular impingement (these are both types of abnormality in the shape of the joint itself), hypermobility or wear and tear.

Other hip-related abnormalities which can refer into the leg, some more commonly than others, include tendon injuries, the iliotibial band (ITB) and bursitis. This is definitely not a conclusive list so I hope you are beginning to see how broad and extensive this topic really is!

Muscular Referral

Another type of referred pain can be muscular, often due to trigger point referral. A trigger point is a local area of overly-contracted muscle which can be painful and tender. Trigger points often have unique referral patterns all over the body. A common area to cause pain referring to the leg is your glute muscles. So, having tightness or trigger points in your glutes can also cause leg pain.

To help with this, there are lots of soft tissue techniques which can effectively release contracted muscles and trigger points. However, muscles do not tighten for no reason. It may be because the muscle is weak and needs more strength. There may be restriction or hypermobility in the joints which that muscle works with. There may be a factor in your lifestyle which is repetitively irritating that muscle, or there may be a compensatory pattern which is causing that muscle to be overused. For this reason, treatment is rarely as straightforward as using only soft tissue techniques. It can be helpful to look at the whole body and picture.

Neurological Referral

The other type of referred pain, as mentioned earlier, is neurological pain. This is when you feel pain, or quite often tingling or numbness along the course of a nerve due to a compression or irritation of that nerve higher up in its course. Most nerves travel from the brain, down the spinal cord. They leave the spinal cord at their specific level and then travel out to their assigned body part. However, they have to navigate through narrow channels, muscles, wrap around bones, pass under tendons… So you can see how many areas there are for these sensitive structures to potentially run into some bother.

Luckily our nerves can withstand plenty of normal movement and stretching within the body. However, occasionally they can become compressed due to tightening of muscles or narrowing of the channels that they pass through. This can cause referred pain elsewhere along the course of the nerve, depending on where it is heading.

Some common areas which can cause nerve pain in the leg include:

The Lower Back

The nerves that exit your spine in the lower back will travel down to the legs. As they exit the spine, they travel through a passage which is a common area for compression or irritation. This can occur due to a disc herniation, age-related changes in the spine or other space occupying abnormality.

But it is important to note that nerve irritation at any point is not always caused by physical compression. It can be caused by chemical irritation due to inflammation nearby. This will cause the nerve to be affected by the inflammatory chemicals in the area and cause similar irritation as if the nerve were compressed. Inflammation nearby can be caused by abnormalities in the little joints in your spine, discs and any other injury to the spine. Inflammation can also be amplified by physiological or psychological stress. If you are highly stressed in your life or other factors such as your diet or sleep are below par, then you can cause the same chemical irritation, causing the same symptoms.

As you can imagine, treatment for this type of pain will vary widely. It will likely include appropriate manual treatment, such as soft tissue techniques, mobilisations and spinal manipulation. Then it is really important to address any lifestyle factors or muscular weaknesses which may be contributing. This is to allow for the best chance of long-term resolution.

The Glutes and Piriformis

Sometimes known as piriformis syndrome or deep gluteal syndrome, this is when the sciatic nerve becomes compressed within the buttock region as it passes through or past the piriformis muscle. And much like trigger point referral, this is often treated by addressing the cause of the tightness in the muscle.

 

If you are feeling a little overwhelmed, or maybe even less sure about what may be causing your leg pain, you are not alone. It is an interesting but expansive topic with lots of potential causes. So, if you are experiencing leg pain and would like some help identifying what is causing it and how best to help it, book in to see your Chiropractor.

At the clinic we are able to do a full assessment, give you a thorough explanation and closely guide you through the best way to help your pain and have you functioning as well as possible!

My back and neck are so improved. McCoy is always positive and as well as great treatments, she gives very helpful advice on day to day small changes that make a real difference.

    Tivoli Chiropractic Clinic was recommended to me as I was struggling with hip pain that was getting to the point where... I was struggling to run or sit for extended periods and it was waking me up at night. I went for an assessment, had 5 treatments and another assessment and am now moving into a maintenance phase with exercises. The chiropractor who is treating me has been professional, friendly and helpful throughout. The treatments have helped far more that I had expected and I am almost pain free and without medication. I was also given helpful advice that alleviated other symptoms that I was dealing with. Reception is friendly and helpful and I have always managed to get appointments at times that suit me. The environment is clean and accessible and I have felt well looked after.read more

    For over 15 years I have been treated by many different chiropractors so I can say with absolute certainty that Nadene... is by far the most competent, thorough and effective chiropractor I have ever found. This, as well as her extensive knowledge (not just in the chiropractor sector - I actually asked her if she was a doctor in my last session!!), care and passion only scratch the surface as to why I would recommend her to anyone needing treatment. There’s no quick in-and-out the door approach like many in the profession - there is never the feeling of being rushed out the door as Nadene always takes her time to ensure I get the most out of each treatment session. Seeing Nadene is like seeing my sister; she listens, she consults, she advises and moreover - she’s not afraid to pull me up on matters such as not having started Pilate lessons yet or had a ‘mommy MOT’ - yet always does so with such diplomacy and genuine care for my needs. Nadene is very easy to talk to and I usually leave with my ribs hurting from laughing so much. I honestly can’t speak highly enough of her. If you need treatment - please, give her a go because she’s awesome ☺️read more

    After several months of feeling I would have to face up to a chronic painful back I discovered the clinic and Nadene at... the Suffolks fair. She assured me that she would be able to help with this problem and I booked an assessment at the clinic, followed by several treatments. I can honestly say the pain has gone and my back feels robust and reliable again such that I can happily lift my grandchildren without fear. She has been very encouraging, suggesting various things I can do to keep myself agile.read more

    At 19 weeks pregnant, pelvic girdle pain struck leaving me hardly able to move or walk without pain. By chance I was... recommended to see pregnancy chiropractor, Nadene Lidington. From my first appointment with Nadene her treatment was magic, fully assessing what were the contributing factors to my PGP and her tailored treatment provided instant relief from the pain. I left the clinic able to walk normally again, very happy. The frequency of my visits are tailored to how my body is responding to the treatment as I progress through pregnancy, but the PGP is so well managed now I am no longer limited by it despite my job requiring extensive hours of driving. I cannot recommend the Tivoli Clinic and Nadene enough, especially for pregnancy related ailments, her warm and super friendly professionalism is equally matched by her extensive knowledge and methods of treatment. At my last appointment Nadene treated my pregnancy acid reflux, something I had no idea could be treated. I had never heard of a pregnancy chiropractor before but I feel very fortunate that I was recommended to see Nadene, she has transformed my experience of pregnancy for me to be able to finally enjoy it. For those suffering with PGP or any pregnancy ailments, you do not need to suffer, make an appointment to see the lovely Nadene.read more

    Plantar fasciitis is so debilitating......my latest 'episode' was particularly painful and long lasting (several... months). I had tried all the usual remedies (stretching, comfy supportive shoes, foot socks etc) but to no avail. Following shockwave treatment I am now completely pain free! For those who suffer from this painful foot problem I cannot recommend shockwave treatment at the Tivoli Chiropractor enough. I visited the practice during Covid and felt completely safe in Nadine's hands.read more

    I booked my dad in with the physio, Ange and he is so pleased that he went, before returning to Bahrain. He's been... really suffering and he was just pleased to hear that it's nothing too sinister. He left Ange armed with a plan to help alleviate the pain and fix the issue. He said she was really knowledgeable and really put him at ease. Thank you, Ange!read more

    Wonderful place and service. Holly and Kelly are extremely friendly and professional. I had pain in my arm and shoulder... for years and in a few weeks Kelly has sorted it as well as advising me on care and exercise at home. Booking was efficient and simple. I have recommended Tivoli Chiropractors already to several friends and will continue to use them in the future.read more

    After sustaining an injury through cricket I was unable to bowl without discomfort for 18 months before I starting... seeing Pippa at Tivoli Chiropractic. Her examination identified a number of problems that had led to my injury and were stopping me from recovering. The subsequent exercise plan has helped me on the road to recovery and I recently played my first game of cricket without any discomfort!Would highly recommend Tivoli Chiropractic. They are thorough, professional and friendly.read more

    I have been treated by Kelly for two ankle injuries. She was always professional and caring throughout treatments,... ensuring I was comfortable and educated on what injury I had, and what step by step treatment I was to expect. Procedures were always fully explained and the results were unbeatable. After only one month of treatment combined with rehabilitation, I was back on the court playing netball. Rehabilitation with Kelly not only helped my ankles to recover but also helped me to prepare to prevent further injury. I now am educated on prevention and strengthening exercises for my condition and am a very happy patient.read more
