A member asked:

I fell on ice in a parking lot 2 days ago and my outter upper thigh hurts now but i can walk and throbs when i sit. no bruise, what did i do to it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bursa.: You may have inflammed the trochanteric bursa, on the upper, outer part of your thigh. If it only happened two days ago, you should apply ice packs and take aleve (naproxen) or advil, as directed. Hopefully it will get better in a week or two.
