Leg Pain After Injury. MRI Normal. Done Heat Treatment. Remedy?
Sir, I am Nageswara Babu, Journalist from AP. I am 46 years old. In July, 2012 My brother was standing on my thighs and pressing my thighs to get relief from general pains. At the time he lot his balance and slipped on my thighs. He pressed on my knee very near to patella. Since then I am suffering leg pain especially left thigh pain continuously. I found some shapes looks like small tumours or blood clots on my thigh. I got normal report from my M.R.I. I get relief with hot treatment on my thigh. Very important to say to you is.....I get relief from pain after intercourse. I request you to uggest me what to do to get permanent remedy for my thigh pain.
Hello Mr. Babu, thanks for writing. Generally simple soft tissue injuries will not be symptomatic for months & years (taking into consideration that your MRI of thigh yielded a normal report). So i suspect that the pain you are experiencing could be from a remote place (either Hip or Spine) which we call as "referred pain". Get your Hip joint & Spine screened for any problems. Also, to clarify that you are getting pain relief after sexual intercourse has a scientific background. During and after sexual intercourse, your brain releases "endorphins"(chemical neurotransmitters) which interact with opiate receptors in the brain and reduces the perception of pain in a way similar to analgesic drugs. Hope its clear now. Good luck
