The problem of calf soreness is most likely to occur when the human body is tired. For example, those who work on construction sites will experience calf soreness in the evening after a busy day. In addition, athletes who exercise very much will also experience calf soreness after exercising for a long time. Some women also experience calf soreness in the morning when they wake up. At this time, the following causes should be considered. Why do women feel sore in their calves when they wake up in the morning? Weakness and soreness in the lower limbs when waking up in the morning can be seen in physical fatigue, strenuous exercise, or poor blood circulation in the lower limbs, varicose veins, etc. It can also be seen in patients with restless legs syndrome, which is common in women. It is recommended to seek diagnosis and treatment from the surgery or vascular disease department. Local physical therapy, massage, acupuncture, oral muscle relaxing and blood circulation promoting drugs are effective. Severe cases of varicose veins require surgical treatment. If you have had a cold recently or have excessive sweating, diarrhea, etc., it may be an electrolyte disorder. If this is not the case, it may be low blood pressure or low blood sugar. Weak and sore legs may be caused by potassium deficiency, which can cause muscle soreness and weakness. It is recommended that you go to the internal medicine department of the hospital to do thyroid and parathyroid hormone and function tests to find out the cause and then treat the symptoms. Do not take medication blindly. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that calf fatigue and soreness are mostly related to qi deficiency, and you can take qi-replenishing medicine. If the pain is severe, local physical therapy can be performed. It may also be gastrocnemius muscle weakness, which may be caused by lack of exercise. Decreased physical resistance will cause soreness in the limbs, or it may be calcium deficiency. The calf muscles often ache in the early morning, and the calf muscles also feel weak during the day. This may be due to insufficient blood supply to the calf and long-term strain on the calf muscles and bones. The ancients often said: "When people get old, their legs get old first; if the legs don't get old, the person won't get old." Therefore, how important are a person's legs to his or her life span. In medicine, it is said that "legs are a person's second heart." Why? Because the movement of a person's legs can help the circulation of the heart. If the heart's blood circulation is normal, then all parts of the body's limbs (including the calves), internal organs and brain will be supplied with blood from the heart, and various organs will function normally and develop soundly. How to improve adequate blood supply and weakness in the calves? First, you must eat foods that can produce blood every day, such as meat, fish, eggs and other foods. These foods are the source of blood, but the amount varies from person to person. In traditional Chinese medicine, Qi is generated in blood, and strength is generated in Qi. In other words, only when the blood is sufficient, the qi will be vigorous and the strength will be great. Second, when your legs are sore and weak, do not overwork them. It is best to do less or rest. Otherwise, it will cause the calves to become even weaker. Third, exercise more often and participate in more sports activities. |
