Claudication is pain and/or cramping in the lower leg due to inadequate blood flow to the muscles. The pain usually causes the person to limp. The word claudication comes from the Latin claudicare meaning to limp. Claudication typically is felt while walking, and subsides with rest.
What is neurogenic claudication? Neurogenic claudication is a term that describes any pain, numbness, weakness, cramping or general discomfort in the legs. This condition can be caused by a vascular or spinal condition, either restricting blood flow to the legs or sending pain signals through the nerve pathways to the extremities.
