What Do Pain And Swelling In The Right Thigh Indicate?
I have been dealing with a dull ache in my right thigh for three years. It is only when I sit. The muscles feel really tight and it appears that my thigh is swelled and sometimes warm to the touch. It has really started bothering me the last month as I fell on the ice and must of irritated it even more.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Muscle strain or ligament problem also can lead such problem. Myositis like muscle inflammation or underlying bone pathology also need to be ruled out. Muscular reflexes should be checked and neurological examination also should be done. EMG, NCV and local X-ray done if needed.
According to cause specific treatment given.
Consult physician for examination
