If Simple Exercise Increases The Nerve Pain In My Legs, Hips, Back And Feet, Should I Not Do It And Lose Out On The Benefits Of Exercise?
I have nerve pain in my legs, hips, thighs, back, feet, and hands. It's not clear what the root cause is. My question is: If simple exercise like a 15-20 minute easy walk increases the nerve pain in my legs, hips, back & feet, should I not do it and lose out on the benefits of exercise?
Any thoughts, wisdom is appreciated.
