What Causes Severe Pain In The Upper Thigh?
Hi, For the past few months I have been having intermittent pain in the upper part of my thigh. It feels like the joint is popped out and hurts a lot. It used to only happen when I was laying down, but now it is affecting my work as well. I have pain and difficulty standing and walking after sitting at my desk.

Hello,
This can be due to trauma which has impacted nerve and it can also from neuropathy. Wrong posture can also contribute to it. All you need to do is get yourself examined. you may require radiography. I suggest you visit an emergency room and after proper evaluation you will be treated. you may need vitamin supplementation as well to recover fast.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
