Front part of my calves hurt from the knees down.

Not your age. am older than that I dont have it. And do you mean your chin bone the front of your leg fot thats all I can think would be the front of your calfs. Since your fall did bruising go away and come back? if not that can be from the fall . If so the brusing could be from a no. of things. Right now I brsise so easy that it is awful I can look at myself and a big PURPLE bruise will come out its cause they have me on 2 blood thinniners and high dosages at that . BUt if you are all that worried about it go to Doctor for you could also have Diabetes but I would get it checked out if it bothered me that much.

It could be anything from aging to a vitamin deficiency to a medical condition you need to have looked at. If I were you I'd go to a doctor as soon as I can. I hope it's nothing serious!

I have trouble mainly with my joints, knees and ankles. I played a lot of sporst as a youth and young man, and was still playing competitive squash into my forties. I put my problems down to these factors. I wish we had the quality footwear they onsider myself a lot luckier than many of the same age.have today, I also have problems with my calves, but I now believe I have to live with all these problems as I get older. I take cod liver oil for the joints, and that works well. I know I should get in the pool to help my body, but I am really too busy. This will be a priorioty when I retire in seventeen months. Have a nice day, and enjoy what you have. I consider myself lucky, the'remany worse off than I am.

No it is not your age..It sounds like sore muscles..If you have not used your leg muscles it could be Fibromyolgia,thats pain in the muscles..it is like artrities but it is in the muscles...I don't know about the bruses but brusing is not a good sign unless you have hit your legs.it is a sign of a blood condition though.If they continue to bruise ,i would consult the doctor..Bruses only should occur if you have it your self...

It could be being caused by a lot of things! A lot of walking or uncomfortable shoes or long periods of standing. i don't think it is likely to be related to the amount of milk you are drinking now as i think it's during the younger years that the bones are formed and get their strength, we lose bone density as we get older! i suppose there is a possibility it could be osteoporosis or something similar, if this is something that is causing you problems it's probably a good idea to go to see the doctor to get it checked out! Unfortunately though it could just be one of those things that happens as our bodies get older! xxx

I am sorry that your going through this. Maybe try some bananas. I have also heard that drinking milk helps with leg pains. I hope that this helps you out! Let us know if your feeling any better!

Have you tried eating bananas? You could just be deficient in potassium. How did you come to the conclusion that you may need more calcium?

I had pain in the front of my calves recently really painful. The reason why I was experiencing the pain was muscle related. I had recently started excersing, and I over did it. Age does cause some changes to our body, I am not sure if it is in your situation. Have you done anything physicial that might cause this pain. If it continue, I would get an opinion from my doctor.

I think it could be either 'age' or the fall or could be a combination of the two/three if you count the calcium which you may just need more or your body isn't making good use of the calcium. I can't remember what it is but a deficiency in one of the vitemines will cause calcium not to be absorbed into your system. I hurt all over right now but have been on my feet all day and into the night - canning again :)

I hate to tell you but age does take its toll!i have more aches and pains these days than i have places to have them LOL

Neither it is a age factor nor it relates to bone density. You might have got deb tic which losses the muscles. Try to have daily a morning walk and evening walk and better use some ointment for relief. I think you will get relief. Do things according to your age. My lotting is best for u and I I am ten less than u. Take care.

Have you checked with your doctor yet? Pain is an indication of many things when you experience it. What is the quality of the pain? Does it last all day? Was there comfort when you try to change position, exercise, pain medication or massage? It is not enough to drink milk and yogurt. You have to let it be evaluated by an orthopedic. Previous injuries may be another factor but foods rich in Protein could be a culprit. Should we suspect arthritis, a doctor could evaluate that. If you are overweight, maybe you can try reducing. Alternate standing is not the proper way to manage it. You have to have a set of range of motion exercises.

hi me again. Are you referring to the front of your lower leg? If that's the case, those would be your "shins". The calves are the meaty part in back. If you fell years ago and only now are having pain, it wouldn't be from that. It could be something simple like "shin splints". But has it been on and off over a period of time. Or did it start fairly suddenly? Have you been wearing new shoes or recently did more walking than usual? Have you been checked for osteoperosis? As we get older, we lose bone density. You might ask your doctor. Also, you might ask about getting insoles (cushioned inserts) for your shoes, especially if you are standing for long periods of time. It is also not a good idea to walk barefoot a lot on tile, marble or stone flooring, if you have this in your house. Always wear slipper or shoe with a good cushion. See your family doctor or a podiatrist. And put your feet up on a pillow when at rest. Take care!

Definitely worth a trip to the doctor, before it gets any worse. Could be anything from arthritis to shin splints to vitamin deficiency to osteoporosis. There are enough medicines out there that you shouldn't have to live in pain--even if it's infrequent. Better to have it fixed now than let it become a major problem.

It sounds kind of like shin splints to me. You get that when you increase your walking and running without wearing appropriate shoes and stretching and warming up. I do not know what to tell you other than ibuprofen. With your calcium you need vitamin D and magnesium to make it all work together. That is why it is good to be in the sun about ten minutes daily, and to eat a banana, it has magnesium as well as potassium. Both are good for your heart and blood pressure, too. There is another affliction, intermittent claudication that can cause lower leg pain, too. It is more serious. You could search both terms, to see what I am talking about, then be an informed patient and see your doctor.

I think its related to the age, do you have lack of activities when you're young? When you're getting older you lost calciums plus the absorber activities for the calcium getting lesser too, or it might because of high colesterol or sumthin, u should see a doctor to know precisely.
