How Can A Rash On The Upper Thigh Be Treated?

3 days ago i was at my office and had a fairly sudden leg pain in the upper thigh that made it extremely painful to sit and later that day made me limp. The pain has gradually diminished although still there but now I have a rash in the general location of where my pain was. What could it be?
