I think you are right in thinking that it can be pulled muscle in thigh. I would suggest you to take Myoril tablet twice daily. I would also suggest you to apply diclofenac ointment and voveran tablet for pain relief.
Also It can be a pinch nerve in the spine. You would need a MRI to diagnose this condition.
