Thigh root pain can be caused by traumatic injury such as muscle strain, or it can be caused by femoral head necrosis, lumbar disc herniation and hip joint disease.
1. Muscle strain: If the patient’s thigh area has been traumatized or excessive exercise leads to muscle fatigue, muscle strain, etc. will cause thigh root pain, generally can be relieved by appropriate rest, without special treatment. It can also be relieved by physical therapy such as hot compress and massage.
2. Necrosis of the femoral head: If you suffer from necrosis of the femoral head and other diseases, it may also lead to thigh root pain. Because necrosis of the femoral head will lead to inflammatory exudation in the hip joint cavity, resulting in edema of the synovial membrane of the hip joint, stimulating the muscles in the thigh area to cause spasm causing thigh root pain. Patients can use ibuprofen extended-release capsules under the guidance of the doctor to relieve pain. The seriousness of the disease requires artificial joint replacement surgery.
3. Lumbar disc herniation: because of the degenerative lesions of lumbar vertebrae, the protruding nucleus pulposus compresses the nerve root and produces radiating pain along the direction of sciatic nerve, which can cause thigh root pain.
4. Hip joint disease: mainly include acetabular fracture, acetabular bone tumor and hip dislocation and other diseases, can be because of the synovial membrane of the hip joint or the joint capsule has stimulation and cause thigh pain or tingling.
Other conditions can also cause thigh root pain, it is recommended that patients seek medical attention in a timely manner to clarify the cause of the disease under the guidance of the doctor to carry out the appropriate treatment, not self-medication.
