Lower limb pains are very commom. Many muscle-skeletal, neuropathic, vascular and visceral abnormalities may be responsible for pain in the lower limbs. The analysis of the clinical history, the medical evaluation and, when necessary, the
complementary exams allows the precise diagnosis in majority of the cases. The treatment is based in the elimination of the causal condictions and, when necessary, in the use of analgesics, psychotropics, physical medicine, psychotherapy and functional
neurosurgical procedures.
