aching legs
Posted , 6 users are following.
How many of you ladies are suffering from severe aching legs, especially at night, a sort of a burning achy feeling, all night every night, mum reckons it could be the start of hip problems as she had this prior to hips giving her agony and ended up having two hips done. had this for years though now, worse on laying down too which is great when you want to sleep.

Dont worry you are not alone. I too feel like a penguin in the morning as my heels are usually so stiff and I get the achy burning feeling in legs like growing pains.
When will it end...

Yep. I get what I'd call restless legs: moving them all the time, especially in bed. Know that I'm getting really tired and have to lay down when my legs start playing up!
Uh Ho......my dear ol' mum (RIP sweetie x) had a total of 3 hip replacements (I would make a joke about Rolf Harris' Jake the Peg, but he's a bit of a taboo these days!!). She also had TB in her spine and elbow twice in her life. She had me and one sister after her spine op, so wonder if me and that sister have inherited any of her bone issues as our other sisters/brother don't seem to have the aches and pains we both have. Watch this space......!!
have you tried laying down with a thin pillow supporting the small of your back? When I had backache a few years ago, this worked for me. Alternatively, put it underneath your knees/between your knees if lying on your side. Worth a try
