It is difficult to move the legs

Difficulty moving the legs, also known as leg weakness or paresis, involves reduced strength and mobility in the lower extremities. This condition can arise from various causes, including neurological disorders, muscle diseases, spinal cord injuries, circulation problems, or prolonged inactivity. Leg weakness may present as heaviness, unsteady gait, or complete inability to move the legs. It is important to seek medical evaluation to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.
