Joint pain and dehydration

[J_Andrew_Evans 0]

Hi. Has anyone had pain in legs, feet and body because of not drinking enough during the day. I’ve been suffering this at times and was just exploring this as a possibility.

Dehydration does crazy things to your body. It is possible but I would call your surgeon.

If you are showing any signs of dehydration contact your surgeon. They should be able to arrange for you to get fluids as an out patient before you require going to hospital.

I don’t know if I’m dehydrated. I was exploring it as an idea for what’s causing the pain. It may be something else.

Is your urine dark? That’s the most common sign but I am not certain if that’s always present or not. If I were you I’d put a call into the dr.
