I have upper thigh pain, across the leg toward the hip, when I try to stretch the leg and also running down the thigh muscle. I know I'm a mess, right? Anyhow, went to my pcp, he xrayed and then manipulated it. I taught him to be much faster than he was/did though. I gouged his arm while I was reaching for a horridly painful spot when he was moving the leg. His arm was between my hand and my leg! It was an accident and I apologized profusely, but at least he KNOWS that it hurts, right?!?
He suggested some pt, based on how it hurt, is there anything I can try at home before I go to therapy? I can't flex my leg enough to put my socks on, tie shoes, or even clip my toenails. It came on very rapidly. The left leg is okay. I always considered the left leg to be my weaker one, I use a cane with varying degrees of leaning on it.
I am confused and hurting. Any words of advice would be great.
