Brief Answer:
Can be muscle spasm or nerve root compression.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.

The pain in upper right inner thigh can be due to a muscle spasm or a nerve root compression at the level of lumbar spine. An MRI scan of the area will help in detecting the exact cause. Till then, doing a hot compress, taking oral muscle relaxants and increasing intake of vitamin B 12 and electrolyte rich fluids can help.

I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
