Pain in left leg due to jogging/running?


Question:
I started jogging nearly two months back. I first do warm-up by walking then do a little stretching exercises and then start jogging. I generally complete nearly 3km each day and do it every alternate day. The problem is as soon as I start jogging I feel pain in lower one-third part of both legs which seem to disappear after jogging some distance. But when I come back after jogging I feel extreme pain in my left leg from the knee downwards. Occasionally I have pain in right leg also but most of the times the pain is in my left leg. While walking I sometimes feel pain in the lower parts of my legs. How can this problem be solved? I do not have any trainer and have started after learning basics from various websites. In fact the pain in left leg seem to be so excruciating that I started thinking about giving up jogging and start cycling. But I found cycling and walking boring so I want to continue jogging/ running. Any suggestions?

Answers:
strech more (yoga less pain afterwards)
stretch more and youl be ok
2 months is a long time for your legs to still be causing pain and aching. I waited too long thinking the problem (back problems) would go away before I seen a Dr. and ended up with other problems. Just a suggestion
If the pain is down the front of your legs, you may have shin splints. Check out this web site
Reduce weight
No-smoking, single cigarettee causes pain
Use flat heel shoes
Take pain killer for 2 days
Do exercise.
First of all consult a doctor it may be a fatal problem but it is not cause to worrie.

Secondly, Bear in mind that this type of pains are parts of sports person. This is acctually not pain instead this is hardening of muscles in punjabi we call it "Khallee". To accomodate newer work pressure muscle gets develop itself that causes the pain.

Don't worrie at all, if pain persists take a rest for 1-2 days or take high callorie food.
Don't overlook the first fact.
