What Causes Pain In The Right Thigh Area?
I have had some anatomy/physiology. I have been experiencing some pain in my right thigh in the area of what I believe is the adductus longus muscle. When I sit down, the pain recedes as if to open up and pinched nerve (?). If I stand or walk for a few minutes, the pain returns. I thought it could be the sartorius muscle but I don t think so. Could it be varicose veins? Could it be something involving the sacroiliac nerve? I have had a diagnostic test to see how the circulation is in the area, results negative. Any clues?

hi,
thank you for providing the brief history of you.
As you have pain in the adductor region it could be a spasm of the muscle for which a thorough clinical assessment is advised.
Also the test for venous insufficiency is performed and is negative then nothing to look into the worry factor with venous hemodynamics.
Also, this kind of pain can be due to pinched nerve in the lumbar spine as due to which the symptoms can arise.
An MRI of lumbar spine will help assist further the soft tissue statues and help us planning the treatment.
Also undergoing physcial therapy will help to Improve the strength in the muscles and also will improve the flexibility.
In my clinical practice such cases respond well to physical therapy.
