What Causes Muscular Pain In The Legs?
My friend has muscle pain up when his leg meets his body . He can t lift his leg without pain. When he sits down, the muscle feels really tight, like a charley horse, then after a while, it feels like it gives then the pain is gone. What would cause that?

Hi. This sounds like 'groin pain' which is a loose term for pain in that area. It can actually be caused by several structures ranging from the hip joint itself, thigh muscles (adductors), pathology in the abdomen or genital area, or pain referred from the back, kidneys etc. A thorough examination is needed.
