What Could Cause Chronic Pain In Inner Upper Thigh In A 33 Years Old Female?
Hi there,
I am a 33 yr old healthy woman, but have been having regular pain in my inner upper thigh. I do not have any bruising, redness, or swelling. I have not pulled any leg muscles recently. Now, the same pain feels as though it has "traveled" up into the groin area, but I still have pain in my thigh. My concern is a possible blood clot and I am afraid to let this go much longer. How do I know when enough is enough? Should I be concerned or could it be something besides my worst fear?
Thank you!
