What Causes Pain In The Thighs?
I was playing tennis yesterday and when I lunged for a ball, I felt a pull/pain on the upper outside of my thigh. I continued to play but could not bend and put weight on that leg. Walking upstairs was hard as well. I iced it and by this morning the pain had moved up like it is almost in my outer hip joint. It hurts when I try to cross the left leg over the right.

Hi,
It is nothing but a pulled muscle or sprain. As of now you can take analgesics like Acetay or Tramadol for pain relief. Apply ice packs and keep the affected feet elevated. Generally the symptoms will settle in couple of days. If symptoms persist, you can consult an orthopedic and get evaluated. Wishing you good health.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
