Suggest Treatment For Pain From The Back Down My Thigh
Hi, It seems like when a sit for a long period of time I have a strange pain from my back hip down my thigh. Have had these symptoms for about a week now. Also its painful all the time and is only in my right side. It seems like it may be my sayatic nerve.
The symptoms seem to be related to sciatica pain. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain. I also suggest gentle stretching exercises. If the symptoms continue, you should consult a neurologist for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
