    However, the symptoms vary depending on the severity and cause of the condition. Lighter symptoms include pain or heaviness in the legs, hips, glutes and lower back, post-exercise. [6] [8] Mild to severe symptoms include prolonged constant pain, tiredness and discomfort in the lower half of the body.

  3. Intermittent claudication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermittent_claudication

    Intermittent claudication is a symptom and is by definition diagnosed by a patient reporting a history of leg pain with walking relieved by rest. However, as other conditions such as sciatica can mimic intermittent claudication, testing is often performed to confirm the diagnosis of peripheral artery disease. [citation needed]

    Claudication is a medical term usually referring to impairment in walking, or pain, discomfort, numbness, or tiredness in the legs that occurs during walking or standing and is relieved by rest. [1] The perceived level of pain from claudication can be mild to extremely severe.

    Peripheral veinous disease, on the other hand, refers to problems with veins—the vessels that bring the blood back to the heart. [18] The classic symptom is leg pain when walking, which resolves with rest and is known as intermittent claudication. [2]

    Rest pain is a continuous burning pain of the lower leg or feet. It begins, or is aggravated, after reclining or elevating the limb and is relieved by sitting or standing. It is more severe than intermittent claudication, which is also a pain in the legs from arterial insufficiency. [citation needed]

    This results in claudication and chronic leg ischemia. This condition mainly occurs more in young athletes than in the elderlies. [ 2 ] Elderlies, who present with similar symptoms, are more likely to be diagnosed with peripheral artery disease with associated atherosclerosis . [ 2 ]

  8. Arteriosclerosis obliterans - Wikipedia

    The symptoms are caused by ischemia of the tissues. Intermittent claudication is manifested by pain, (cramping), numbness, and fatigue in the muscles on exercise. These symptoms are relieved by rest. There may be “rest pain” at night when in bed. Also increased sensitivity to cold, muscular weakness, stiffness of the joints, and paresthesia .

  9. Rhabdomyolysis - Wikipedia

    Recurrent or episodic rhabdomyolysis is commonly due to intrinsic muscle enzyme deficiencies, which are usually inherited and often appear during childhood. [10] [13] Many structural muscle diseases feature episodes of rhabdomyolysis that are triggered by exercise, general anesthesia or any of the other causes of rhabdomyolysis listed above. [10]
