A member asked:

Last week i woke up with what felt like thigh strain after a night of drinks with a friend. 5 days later my leg has squeezing pain & getting worse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See doc: Certainly could be as simple as a muscular strain, but would be smart to be evaluated- clots in leg veins can present similarly for example and you need to be examined. Until then, can try some ibuprofen.
