I m a 56 year old female with pain in my upper thigh/groin area when I first stand from sitting down, or when I change directions when walking. I ve been going to a chiropractor because I thought it was an issue with my lower back/hip. Seems that s not helping. Could this be a symptom of something else?
Hi, This kind of pain usually appears in sacroiliacs, slipped disc at upper lumbar level, hip pathology. I suggest X-rays of hips, pelvis and lower lumbar spine. Treatment depends on cause. In the meantime start painkillers and muscle relaxants. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
