Upper thigh pain
I have an upper thigh pain that I've developed while working out on the cardio. The pain is declining, But it's still there. I need to know whom should I consult with, As in a physiotherapist, Bones and joint issues or nerve (since I read somewhere that it may be due to nerve issues)
PS - Didn't meet with an accident, Nothing heavy fell on my leg... It just happened one fine morning while running on a cardio machine
Pss - I do intensive explosive cardio

Hello
in my opinion you should consult a good & professional physiotherapist and get yourself examined for the present problem.
Also get do's and don'ts before, during and after heavy cardio exercises from the physiotherapist.
If any querry you can have direct consultation with me on practo.
Regards

You might have got a muscle pull. U needed to use ice pack at that time. If still pain is persistent u need to take rest and consult a skilled physiotherapist or an orthopedic doctor. If there is no swelling now use hot pack n take rest n use some pain gel. Don't do heavy cardio if pain is still there

Hello
After heavy exercise muscles may have gone in fatigue .
Drink lot of water
Streches are very important before and after exercies.
may apply heat pack if even after stretches the pain does not reduce
For your thigh pain right now do quadrices stretch .
Still if you dont get relief you may visit a physiotherapist who can assess you in person n guide you
Also the warm up cool down phases both are imporant at gym !
