A member asked:
Cause of random, very intense spasmodic pain in my medial left leg 6-8 inches superior to the knee joint along pathway of saphenous nerve?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Clot or muscle: Either a venous clot, or muscle spasm from strain or cramp. Could be a pulled medial hamstring, vastus medialis, adductor longus, adductor magnus, gracilis, and/or sartorius. See what motion of left hip or knee triggers it. See sports medicine specialist or physiatrist.
