Possible Torn Quad

Hi, 6 weeks ago I was playing soccer and I twisted to kick the ball in mid-air. When I landed I had a very sharp pain in my hip joint and no where else.

Two weeks later the pain moved down my leg into my thigh muscle (quite deep in). Since then it has been extremely painful and I don't know what to do, please help me.

Try putting cold packs, to relieve pain. Take some pain releiving medicatins..See a sports medicine doc to find out the exact cause and get it fixed. You should have shown the injury site on the same day of the injury itself.

Hi,
It seems you are having a sports injury. It may be to muscle or ligament or any other soft tissues.
Potent pain killer with anti-inflammatory and muscle relaxant, rest to the part, cold and hot packs alternatively may fix your problem in about minimum two weeks.
