Duration | Burning in the leg

Duration

The duration of the discomfort from burning in the leg varies greatly depending on the cause of the symptom. Especially nerve conduction disorders are rather protracted diseases. For example, a herniated disc requires extensive physiotherapy and back training, and if necessary (if the disc constricts the spinal cord too much and causes too many complaints) surgery may be necessary.

Even after this, the complaints may still be present, but for many people affected, they disappear after a few weeks. Vascular damage is also more likely to be chronic, so that here too no improvement can be expected without therapy. Under therapy, the symptoms can disappear within a few weeks or months. With acute events, a shorter duration of the symptoms can be assumed.
