My father experiences pain in different regions of the leg.
He feels it to be caused by a nerve as the pain shifts places within the leg.
Pain shifts to a different region of the leg in about 2-3 days time.
Pain is felt majorly while walking and almost non existent in sitting and sleeping position.
He has experienced this same pain 4 yrs ago which had vanished after around 2 weeks at that time.
Currently he has been experiencing the same over 3 weeks now.
Local physician has taken scans in the region of pain(leg) which indicates everything to be normal.
I (son) want to take him to a specialist doctor.
My question is as to whom should i be visiting
A. Neurologist (with neuromuscular expertise )
B. Orthopaedic
Or some other specialist... Kindly help me in this regard.
