Fibromyalgia: 35 yo female with "diabetes insipidus", chronic widespread pain, heart murmur, generalized weakness, &amp; neck, back &amp; "hip" pain might have fibromyalgia (FM); highly associated with Joint Hypermobility Syndrome, which is associated with mitral valve prolapse, pelvic pain, low back pain &amp; interstitial cystitis. FM includes chronic spasm/weakness of major muscles that maintain upright posture.

Question 2

can blood clots give you a "vibrating" feeling in you legs? having a lot of pain in the very top of my thigh/hip radiats down leg and across pelvis

Accepted Answer

Vibrating Feeling  : Vibrating feeling is unusual. You may have mralgia paresthetica, a dysfunction of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve which comes out of the abdoment across the front hip bone and permits sensation to the upper outer thigh.  You could also have disc disease at the l3-4 level.  If oyu are concerned about blood clots, you should see your primary care doctor asap.

Question 3

pain in top of thigh/hip area when walking. or twisting leg. been 3 weeks. doctors say possible torn muscle. i'm scared it's a dvt. help?!! difference

Accepted Answer

Not a DVT.: A DVT, or clot in the deep veins of the leg, cause achiness and leg swelling which is persistent all the time - not just when you're active. Your symptoms sound much more like hamstring tendonitis or a muscle tear. There are a few different tests, from CT to ultrasound to MRI, which can distinguish these and help your doctor create a plan to minimize your pain and speed healing.

Accepted Answer

See doctor: for an exam and more detailed history and possible testing to determine the cause which in turn determines treatment.

Question 5

i have severe pain in my hip at the top of my thigh around where the two areas meet at the joint. has been ongoing for several days.

Accepted Answer

Have it evaluated: If the symptoms persist, have it evaluated. There are several possible causes including intrinsic hip disease, bursitis and tendinitis.

Question 6

i have been getting random sharp shooting pains from my anterior hip area down my medial thigh down through my knee to the tops of middle toes.

Accepted Answer

Radiculopathy : The pattern of pain you are describing follows the path of the L4 nerve root in the back, so you might have somewhat of a pinched nerve in your back.  I would not hesitate to be seen.

Question 7

ongoing pain in top of left thigh/hip area. pain fine some days. other days really sore. only hurts when i bare weight, or move the leg around. help ?

Accepted Answer

Muscle, tendon, join: This may be muscle, tendon, bursa or joint. You may be  best  diagnosed by your physician or  rheumatologist  or  orthhopedist

Question 8

Accepted Answer

: You should keep a diary of the pain and share with your Dr. If you do not have one now is a good time to start.

Question 9

i tore a hip ligament. deep pain in groin area with pain running along top of thigh to back of leg  how long is healing time? should i have an operation? very intense pain

Accepted Answer

Hip Pain: Did your doctor diagnose the torn ligament?  Please see your doctor who may refer you to an orthopedic doctor / surgeon.  You will be given treatment options.  Peace and good health.
