See PCP.: Muscle soreness in the back thigh can be caused by overuse , exercise, or trauma. Since it has been 5 days, warm compresses can help, soaking in a hot tub and even light massage. Some people swear by counterirritants like bengay . Nsaids like ibuprofen, aspirin, or naprosyn (naproxen) may help also.If still sore, see your pcp.
