I have had pain behind my knees, it last a few days then goes away and moves somewhere else in my body, I also get leg and thigh pain but its the same there and gone the next day or so.

My legs, including calves are hurting me right now. I went out and did a little shopping today, and that always gets me. Plus our weather turned much colder here in Bama. So, yes, pain in legs is common, I think.

I'm so sorry, Squarley. Hugs, Elizabeth

THANKS BUT I DO NOT KNOW IF I SHOULD MOVE OR REST, GOSH!!!!!

I'd say rest!

I think it is the ligaments.

Ligaments are cords of connective tissue composed primarily of collagen that bind one organ to another. Most frequently ligaments bind one bone to another, and in the process form an area of relative mobility, known as a joint or articulation. During sports, ligaments work together with tendons and other connective tissues to passively support joints. Likewise, the muscular system and brain coordinate the active support of joints. Together, the active and passive subsystems of the body provide the ability to move and be active.

Everybody please the page at the address below about ligament injuries:

I am suffering with it so bad right now that both of my hips have been threatening to dislocated for the past three weeks, and I am so tired that I am using a walker as therapy.

And the ligaments can get so strained through out the body that they will even cause the muscles in the face to collapse and the jaw bones to dislocate, mine dislocated in 2009.

and don,t worry about the livestrong article. I only wanted to note when I got the definition for ligaments.

Your issue could be vascular. Have you seen a vascular specialist other than just having an Xray of your leg? Do you have varicose veins behind your knee? They can cause a lot of pain. I would also consider seeing an orthopedist if your vascular system checks out. I hope that you feel better soon. Take care.

I have pain that runs down my lower back into my legs that hurts quite a bit. and now I am having pain in my inner left knee on the left side, along with ankle pain on the same side. My doctor just says it's my Fibro. One of these days one of these doctors are going to blame something on Fibro and it's going to turn out to be much worse and who knows what the results will be.

I suffer from type of pain you describe. Usually it comes on when I've done a lot of activity, but sometimes it just manifests out of the blue. I feel better once I massage the area and use a topical pain reliever like icy hot. Since I don't have a personal masseuse at my beck and call, I will use a rolling pin...sounds odd but it works! I hope you find some relief and answers. I would rest until you feel the pain has lessened, sometimes we have to listen to what our body is telling us!
