[quote=Anonymous]I know, I know, I know. Get thee to a doctor. Yes, I will go see one, but need some help determining what KIND (i have a PPO) For several months now I've had pain that comes and goes in my left upper thigh. It's outer though, but deep in the leg. It's a good seven inches lower than the hip, so I don't think it's sciatica (although maybe it is!). Pain is bad when buttocks flexes, after sitting for a long period (especially if my weight has been shifted onto that side), and in the morning (I have a crappy bed -- saving to buy a better one). At its worse it can make it difficult to walk. At first I thought it was a sports injury, but if it is it has never healed. My entire left leg suffers -- even my achilles feels tight. It almost seems like a hamstring but it's more on the outer side of the leg. It throbs mostly, not a shooting pain. But it's deep and ever-present and doesn't seem to go away. Arthritis? Sciatica after all? Hamstring pull? Some other sort of inflamation? What kind of doc do I call? Orthopedic? Or just a chiropractor?[/quote]
