Can you continue to work out if your legs hurt after a workout?

Continuing to exercise is not recommended for leg pain after a workout, as that leg pain is often caused by muscle damage, and further over-exercise may lead to further muscle strain and muscle breakage. It can be recovered by increasing rest and taking warm water orally to promote the absorption of lactic acid within the muscle. At the same time, localized hot compresses or physical therapy can help relieve the symptoms of pain. If the pain is more severe, it may be caused by tendon injury, and you need to go to the hospital to check the MRI of the leg to make it clear. If the damage is obvious, surgery may be necessary. After the leg pain, you should not eat too spicy food, such as chili peppers, spicy strips, spicy hot pot, etc.; it is not recommended to drink alcoholic beverages; you can consume more foods rich in vitamins and fiber, such as fruits and green vegetables, etc.; and consume high-quality proteins, such as fish, shrimp, etc., which will help your leg to recover.
