Unable to bend left leg
My mother is unable to bend right leg due to joint pain (since 7yrs ).
Couple of days back she got some pull of veins below her back thighs.. she got relief from move and hot pad but again it came back ( when she accidentally hit stool lying in bathroom) Pain came back. She is also experiencing issues while lifting her left leg ( although didn't climbed stairs )
Is it ortho issue ( just her right leg unable to bend ) or something else ??
