Brief Answer:
Spine arthritis

Detailed Answer:
Hi there.

Thanks for the query.

It is possible that you may be suffering from spine arthritis that can cause nerve pinching and pain raising from the back to the front of the thigh.

Avoid bending forwards or lifting weights. Apply hot packs to the affected region. Apply pain killer gel. Physiotherapy will help treat this sensation.

I hope I have answered your query.

I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Regards,

Dr. Aashish Raghu
