What Causes Burning Sensation In The Knee And Thigh?
Yes Thank You, I woke up about 2 weeks ago out of a dead sleep, screaming my lungs off. from the top of my right knee up to my upper front thigh was on fire. I cannot describe the pain to even be fire. Maybe like 100 people stabbing me all at once. I was screaming so bad. I almost called an ambulance. It went away. What was that.

Hi,
As per your history, it looks like you are having either muscle spasm or sciatic nerve compression.
You need to visit an orthopaedic surgeon to get it evaluated properly, you can also provide your history with details so that I may be able to provide you with a better possible opinion and treatment plan.
You can take Paracetamol up to four tablets daily for pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Muzaffer Hussain Parray , Dentist
