What could shooting pains in the right foreleg mean? -

The one with the pains is a 65 year old woman who has mild hypertension (controlled by medication), and is otherwise healthy. She had a total knee replacement surgery a couple of years ago, and doesn t think that the shooting pains have anything to do with her leg bones or the prosthesis (knee implant).

It means you should definitely consult your physician. Shooting pains are generally associated with nerve problems. Something could have pinched a nerve or similar to that. But your best corse of action is to see your doctor.

Where exactly is the foreleg?

I HAD THAT BUT IT WENT FROM MY BUTT DOWN TO MY HEEL , IT HAPPENED BECAUSE I HURT MY BACK BADLY AT WORK AND HAD TO GET THERAPY, THERE MIGHT BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH HER LIKE A STRAIN OR INJURY EVEN IF SHE CANT FEEL IT, TAKE HER TO THE DOC.
