A member asked:

My legs gets tired early during bowel movement, specially right one which has thigh swelling front and back?reason?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thigh swelling: If there is definite swelling of the right thigh, it should be evaluated by your physician. Phlebitis or some other thigh pathology would be a possibility. Pelvic problems occasionally cause referred thigh discomfort also.
