Hello Dr. Rynne, A few days back I was stepping down a 12 drop off and felt a snapping sensation in the upper thigh followed by pain that has persisted up to now. I would describe the pain as a burning sensation in the outer muscle. Is this something that should be and can be treated ? I work offshore most of the time in Dubai and don t get to come back to the states too often. The Doctors that my company uses here are on the take and if you can walk then get back to work type attitude. I passed a Fit-to-Work offshore physical and never even seen the Doc. And getting any sort of operation or medical procedure here is out of the question... Thank you for your time. Boz
