What Causes Pain In The Right Thigh?

I have had pain in my right thigh all day - not related to any injury or straining as far as I know. I feels like it is spreading to my higher thigh, and now up to my groin. Pushing on the area feels like a badly bruised area - same type of pain. Could it be some sort of clotting or ?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

The pain you have can be related to blood vessels (throbophlebitis) there can be associated pain & swelling. Upword decent of pain favors this type of pain. Only pain (with burning, numbness) can be nerve pain due to nerve pressure on the supplying nerve.

Confirmation needs detailed physical examination & needful investigations. Consult your physician.

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