Pain Radiating to the Thigh

Description:

Pain radiating to the thigh is often associated with spinal issues, such as a herniated disc, or nerve problems. This pain usually radiates down the leg and may be accompanied by numbness or weakness.

Main Causes:

• Herniated discs
• Sciatica or inflammation of the sciatic nerve
• Hip or pelvic injuries

Treatment:

Treatment depends on the underlying cause. For herniated discs, pain relievers, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery may be required. For sciatica, anti-inflammatory drugs and physical therapy are often recommended. Injuries to the hip or pelvis may require rest, physiotherapy, and sometimes surgery.
