If it is caused by endocrine disorders, you should pay attention to choosing appropriate conditioning medicines according to your physical condition. It is best to use Chinese herbal medicine or Chinese patent medicine for conditioning, pay attention to changing unhealthy living habits, and ensure adequate sleep.

Second, the lack of calcium in the human body can cause weak legs. Calcium deficiency can cause many adverse physiological reactions, especially in women. Women in menopause are more prone to calcium deficiency. You should pay attention to eating more calcium-supplementing foods. Milk has a better calcium supplement effect, so you should pay attention to drinking more milk to improve the phenomenon of weak legs and supplement the calcium needed by the body.

Third, weak legs may also be caused by osteoporosis. Women in menopause are prone to osteoporosis and often experience symptoms of weak legs. In this case, you should go to the hospital for examination, understand the specific causes in time, actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, and adjust the body in time to effectively improve the symptoms.

Women’s problems with menstruation, dysmenorrhea, pregnancy, and childbirth can easily cause physical weakness, thereby further depleting kidney energy.

What to do if your legs are weak

1. Dry leg massage: Hold one thigh tightly with both hands, and massage from the thigh root down to the ankle with a little force, and then massage from the ankle back to the thigh root; use the same method to massage the other leg. Repeat 10-20 times to make joints flexible and improve walking ability. If you insist on doing this exercise every day, you can also prevent varicose veins in the lower limbs, swelling in the lower limbs and muscle atrophy.

2. Leg swinging: Hold a tree or a wall with one hand, swing your calves forward first, so that your toes are pointed upwards, then swing them backwards, push your toes backwards, straighten your feet, and stretch your legs. Swing your legs alternately, 80 to 100 times each time. This method can prevent lower limb muscle atrophy, weakness, numbness, lower leg cramps and other symptoms.

3. Rub the calf: hold the calf tightly with both hands, rub it in a rotating motion, rub each side 20-30 times, and switch legs 6 times. This method can dredge blood vessels, strengthen leg strength, and prevent leg and foot fatigue and soreness.

4. Twist your knees: Place your feet parallel and close together, bend your knees and squat slightly, place your hands on your knees, twist clockwise ten times, and then twist counterclockwise. This method can dredge blood vessels and treat lower fatigue and knee joint pain.

5. Toe bending: Sit upright with your legs straight, lower your head, bend your body forward, and use your hands to bend the toes of both feet 20-30 times. This method can train the waist and legs, increase leg strength, and prevent fatigue in the pushing part.

6. Rub your feet: Rub your palms together to warm them up, then rub the soles of your feet 100 times each. This method has the effects of nourishing the kidneys, reducing internal heat, relaxing the liver and improving eyesight. It can also prevent symptoms such as foot pain, numbness, and edema.

7. Warm feet: As the saying goes, “warm feet and cool brain”, the elderly usually have hot upper body and cold lower body. Warming your feet means soaking your feet in hot water every night, which can promote blood circulation throughout the body and is beneficial to physical and mental health.

8. Kicking your feet: Before going to bed at night, you can lie flat on the bed, hold the back of your head tightly with your hands, bend one leg to 90 degrees, and kick the other leg towards the air from slow to fast, for 3 minutes each time, then switch to the other leg, and repeat 8 times. This will allow blood to flow smoothly in the legs and help you fall asleep as soon as possible.
