Suggest Treatment For Sharp Pinching Feeling On The Thighs
Several days ago I had the Birmingham Resurfacing on my right hip. Everything seems to be healing ok, but I now have this intense pinching feeling on inside of my left thigh. Quite a sharp pain when I m walking with crutches. Not sure what s going on.

Hello,
Your symptoms are suggestive of Meralgia paresthetica, which is caused by a pinched nerve, probably during surgery. I recommend consulting with a neurologist and performing nerve conduction studies.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
