Can A Lump On The Thigh Due To Overuse Injury Be Treated?

Hello. The other day I was straining to walk with my left leg so I have been using primarily my right. Now my right thigh has developed a small, pamsized lump that is sensitive to touch. Is this a result of overworking a muscle and how long for the pain to subside?

Hi,

Overuse of muscle should not cause a lump that is sensitive to touch. I would recommend you see your doctor and get it checked as it is most likely to be something else that is not related to overuse of thigh muscles.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
