A member asked:

How do i know if i have a quadriceps tear or not?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The thigh can be ten: The thigh, where the quadriceps muscle is, can be tender and swollen. Your physician will evaluate you and see if this is the most plausible diagnosis. It may be something else and therefore the physician will help clarify your symptoms
