Right quadricep pain, Is this normal?

amanda1266

Hello all,
I've been going to the gym for a month now and every time I use the elliptical I have pretty bad pain in my right quadricep. My left one burns a little but its not as bad as the right one.

I started out at 3 minutes on the elliptical before I felt like my leg was going to fall off, I've been able to do 12 a couple times, but mostly I do between 7-10 minutes because of the pain.

I was wondering if this is normal and will get better as I get more fit and build more muscle, or if I should see a doctor because of it.

Thanks

My leg hurting so badly that I fear it may fall off? I'm going with not normal for my answer.

If pain was normal, it wouldn't be called pain.

Pain is not normal.

See doc.
