I have severe pain on the back side of my leg. - #14451

Hello dear See after careful evaluation of your query,there is no direct relationship of masturbation and leg pain. However possibly it is due to either some muscular strain or jerk. I am suggesting some medication and tests Please get them done Scrotal USG Kidney USG X ray knee Apply voveron x ray gel topically for two weeks twice daily If required apply crave bandage You can take zerodol sp accordingly if required Please share the result with orthopedic surgeon and gynaecologist too in person for better clarity Hopefully you recover soon Regards

Hello Prince,

It’s very unlikely to be something serious like a sexual organ problem.

It’s a physical, mechanical issue, not a sexual or reproductive disease.

🛑This is most likely due to nerve irritation, such as mild sciatic nerve compression, or pelvic floor muscle tension that occurs when muscles contract during arousal or ejaculation

🛑A simple examination and possibly a physiotherapy referral can help a lot.

🛑Need physical examination ( like reflexes,sensation in your legs etc) 🛑please consult orthopedic surgeon in person.

👍You did the right thing by asking and you don’t need to feel shy; doctors see issues like this often and DOCTORS are to heal you, NOT JUDGE YOU. Being open with your doctor is part of taking care of yourself.

I trust this helps Feel free to talk again Thank you

Hi Prince, thank you for opening up. I understand it can feel awkward to talk about such issues, but you did the right thing by asking. Let’s go through this. You issue might be due to one of many causes. It’s unlikely to be serious, but since it’s been present for a month, you should get evaluated.

Kindly get done a physical examination by a Neurologist or an Orthopedician. I understand that issues like this aren’t easy to open up in front of someone. But opening up in front of a doctor would not be much difficult, once you start. Us doctors see such or worse cases almost everyday. A good doctor will make sure you’re comfortable while telling your issues.

If your pain radiates to the lower back or worsens on bending, then get done an MRI of LS Spine. Otherwise, no need for now.

Simple blood tests - CBC, Vit-B12, Vit-D.

Avoid prolonged sitting or awkward postures. Do gentle hamstring and lower back stretches daily. Hot compress over lower back and thigh twice a day.

Still your pain persists, take a short course of Tab. Etoricoxib 60mg twice a day × 5 days. Don’t take for long, as it can cause side effects.

Avoid: Excess masturbation (temporarily reduce frequency). Sitting cross-legged or on hard surfaces for long.

Feel free to reach out again.
