The treatment of leg pain and swelling depends on the cause, and therefore the case must be evaluated by the doctor and the necessary examinations are carried out, and then treatment. What must be excluded when leg pain and swelling without a fall or blow are deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which is an emergency situation that calls for immediate hospitalization and appears in the form of severe pain in the back of the leg, stiffness in the back of the leg, and an increase in the size of the leg than the other leg, It is treated with anticoagulants such as heparin and warfarin.Among the causes are also muscle tension in the leg muscles, which appears as pain when moving with a feeling of leg cramps and to relieve it, warm water compresses are used, a topical ointment such as Diclofenac and a muscle relaxant such as Sirdalud 2mg three times a day, and among the reasons is also cellulitis and appears in the form of leg pain with Redness and swelling in the skin and its treatment is with antibiotics such as clindamycin 300 mg three pills daily, and also causes of leg cramps due to a lack of some minerals such as magnesium and appears in the form of leg cramps, and one of the reasons is also Berger’s disease, in which blood vessels swell, inflammation and clotting occur in them.
