Hi,
I cycle at least an hour every day, normally 7 days a week. Every time I skip a day of training, I get a sharp, burning pain in both legs about 24 to 48 hours later, which keeps me from cycling and even from walking for up to a week and a half.
The pain doesn't stay in one place but may appear in one muscle now, but another muscle in the other leg an hour later.
Neither my doctor nor a specialist in sports injuries I've seen had ever heard of this. Has anyone else ever heard of this condition?
I'm not only interested in prevention or treatment, it would also be helpful just knowing whether this really exists, or if I should see a psychiatrist instead.
