What Causes Deep Pain In Right Outer Thigh?
I have a deep ache in my rt outer thigh, localized just above knee. Only very slight to no tenderness. No edema. I ve measured both thighs. No skin color difference. X-Ray was done, showing only mild degenerative changes in rt hip. Now dr wants to do MRI.. Would an ultrasound not be indicated first to r/o dvt? I ve had this pain for about 1 month. I actually strained my inner rt thigh approx 5 weeks ago when exercising. But that is gone & then then pain started.. Thank you, Judy No dimer done. Said was free. Not true?

Hi,
Your sign and symptoms are not in favor of DVT. It looks like the pain is due to the degenerative condition in your knee.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
