What Causes Constant Pain In Thigh?

I have constant pain in my right thigh. It is especially painful in the early morning-often waking me up & I need to put a heating pad on it to get comfort & back to sleep. It also hurts during the day when I stand or walk more than 15 minutes. This began a month ago & is getting progressively worse.

Hi.
I've gone through your query and I can understand your anxiety.

Constant pain in thighs might be due to the overusage & stress on thigh muscles leading to tendonitis or any sprains . It presents with symptoms like Pain in the front or back of the thigh radiating to knees & hip while walking or when doing your routine work.

I advice you to
- Do gentle massage of thighs & rest. Don't overstrain.
- Hot compress
- Analgesics like ibuprofen or aceclofenac with a muscle relaxant.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.

Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
