Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Thigh

I have been having a pain in my upper left thigh since last night. The skin is sensitive to touch and periodically I get a sharp pain in my thigh. This pain woke me several times throughout the night last night and has been present most of the day. My leg now feels sore when I walk on it. I also noticed slight swelling on the top of my thigh where I am experiencing pain. Is this something I need to get checked out, or just wait it out. (I will also be traveling out of state tomorrow)

Hello,

It may be due to muscle sprain.

For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.

Continue physical therapy.

In case of not getting relief you may require X Ray after orthopedician consultation.

Avoid strenuous activity

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