Varies: The presence of the scoliosis itself does not necessarily explain the diagnosis of severe right thigh pain. You still lack a specific diagnosis. Empiric treatment could include things like pain medications, muscle relaxants, and anti inflammatorues; but further work up should be considered to establish the diagnosis.
