Suggest Treatment For Burning In Leg From Knee To Thigh

I have severe burning in my right leg from my knee up to and including my thigh. It s been hurting for about 3 months. It affects my ability to walk and the only relief I get is from icing it. My DR said he thought It was a nerve from back pain and gave me Naproxen, which did nothing for me. Help

HI
well come to HCM
Looking to the history given here this could be sciatica to get it confirm you need to get the imaging study but before that try to maintain good posture have some bed rest some time this would be okay, and then no need to go for any investigation, hope this information helps, take care.
