what causes your legs to feel so tired when walking
MY LEGS DO FEEL HEAVY AND TIRED AFTER WALKING OR DOING ANY EXERCISE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ANY HELP. Your symptoms and the CT scan results are suggestive of a blockage in your aorta called Leriche Syndrome, which often occurs in patients with abnormal cholesterol, atherosclerosis, hypertension and heavy smoking.
Symptoms include pain in the legs or the legs feeling very heavy when you walk or climb upstairs. After some rest the symptoms go away. What is going on is that the blood vessels are constricted due to too much cholesterol or plaque in the arteries.
