Same. Have you tried rubbing urine on your thigh. 🤦🏾‍♂️ If Chad Johnson the NFL wide receiver didn't say it, I definitely would've never attempted this. But I also do the stretches, but I rub my urine on my thigh and instant relief in under 2min. I've tried it a few times just to be sure I wasn't going crazy. Supposedly, we have stem cells in it. It works for half a day. I haven't soaked, which what he used to do for his ankle and feet. He'd also warm it up and said he could heal a sprain ankle in a couple days.

Thank u so much for these exercises 👍🏻 i had intense pain & numbness on my thigh & lower back in the same areas u described in your video & the Dr i saw earlier made me do an xray & wanted me go see a bone specialist which i have to wait 2 months cos government subsidy hospital & just sent me home with pain killers & no instruction to do any stretching 😳 thank God i found your video & these exercises helped relieve my painful condition God bless u for helping share your expert knowledge on all these exercises especially helpful to those of us who cant afford expensive therapy sessions but still need to get back our mobility just to get on with being able to do daily tasks in life without being a burden to our loved ones if we can’t get about on our own ☺️

Hi, great video …… I’m about to subscribe after writing this message because your video is the best one I’ve seen….. I’m pretty sure I have this problem…… 2 yrs ago I was literally just sitting up on my sofa and got the most incredible pain in my left thigh….. for 3 weeks I couldn’t walk, if I lay on the bed flat, I couldn’t raise my leg up (when straight out), I couldn’t lift my foot up off the floor when standing so I’d have to rock my foot toes to heel to put on underwear and trousers etc… The only way I could get about was on crutches, I couldn’t even stand properly. I’ve never felt pain like it, (ice packs were the only thing that eased the awful cramp like pain) and I’ve had chronic back pain and fibromyalgia for just about 30 years now. ….. I’ve come a long way on my own, slowly getting back most of my leg function, I still can’t get on the floor….. I can’t bear any pressure on my thigh, also numbness and tingling, I decided to try my local physiotherapist and he gave me some exercises. One of them is to lay on my stomach and lift my heel to my butt. I’ve only done a few of these repetitions so far, but I feel I’ve gone back a whole year or more on my recovery. I’ve had to use ice packs again and haven’t needed them in a long time and the pain has ramped up again…… do you think I may have the condition mentioned in this video? I appreciate we’ve never met etc. I’m 52 and a woman…….sorry for the long message, but I wanted to give as much information as possible……thanks so much for your time……. Jan

@RehabScience

Usually, this problem only causes pain and sensory changes. If your leg is buckling or giving way, the issue may be associated one of the nerve roots in your low back. I would recommend seeing your local orthopedic physical therapist or an orthopedic doctor who can check your spine.

The foot is innervated by branches of the sciatic nerve. So, the femoral nerve doesn’t usually refer pain to the foot.

Hi - thank you for this, it does provide relief! What I’m wondering though - is it normal to also have lower back pain (same side) in addition to the numbness and tingling in the thigh since the nerve stems from that area? And if so, will doing these exercises also relieve the lower back pain?

In standing, the spine assumes a position of extension, which can trigger the nerve roots exiting the low back. I would also recommend trying the exercises in my spinal stenosis video. Here is a link. kzread.info/dash/bejne/aYOq29GsfrLPhdo.htmlsi=P0P_V58JeXXKjGme

Thanks! Mine started with numbness in right quad then intense prickly pain when lying in bed. That left my thigh really sore. I have slept in a chair for the past week. The original pain is still there but not as intense. I now have a painful knot in side of left thigh and numbness across center of my back!! I have a doctor's appointment in March but is this common with MP?

@RehabScience

2 ай бұрын

Yes, those symptoms can occur with this issue. Since the nerves that go down the front of the legs start in the low back, you may experience pain and other symptoms in that region as well. Also, since the femoral nerve travels through the quadriceps muscles on the front of the thigh, it is possible to get knots in that region.

Can this condition come from riding push bike ?

Dr. Tom Do you think that it would be beneficial to go ahead with an MRI for something that appears to be improving? Suspected muscle strain with some nerve pain… but improving with time.
