I'm really worried about my mom's condition. She's been having this burning sensation in both her legs, and despite visiting several doctors, we're still not sure what's going on. We've heard it could be related to the sciatica nerve, varicose veins, or even complications from the hip replacement surgery she had five years ago. Could you help us figure out the exact cause?

I've been feeling this really weird cold sensation in my right shoulder since last night, like there's a very cold AC blowing right on it. This happened after I twisted myself a bit while trying to adjust my car seat's headrest, which was a bit awkward, and then I sat through a 2-hour movie. My shoulder doesnt hurt, and I can move my arm perfectly fine without any redness or swelling, but this cold feeling is just odd. What could be going on here?

It could be a muscular spasm. as of now, you can apply a diclogel over the area and take a tablet zerodol TH8 twice a day after food for 2 days. it should reduce, if it doesn't, then you need to consult a orthopaedician in person for further evaluation and management.
