Suggest Treatment For Stiffness And Mild Pain In The Thigh After Injury

I felt a pain in my thigh, I think it must have hit steering wheel
My car is fine. I feel shaken up . Could I have done something.to my leg and need to be checked? It was such a small accident. I feel weird nerve sensations on my left side
, Same side as my leg which has some pain. It is very subtle, not extreme pain. I feel them a little on my right side in my foot. My body feels a little stiff
A minor soft tissue injury likely.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
From the description provided it seems to be a minor soft tissue injury. The stiffness and mild pain will gradually relieve with rest, hot compress and pain killers. If there is no pain on weight bearing on the leg and walking then any serious injury is not likely. You can wait and self monitor the area for a few days. It is likely to improve on its own.
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.
