A member asked:
How can i know if the pain or sensation in my upper right thigh is caused by a pinched nerve or arthritis?

Good question: Probably not arthritis at your age but you need your hip and leg examined. May need a MRI of the lumbar spine. And hip. It can often be very confusing since there is a lot of overlap of hip and spine symptoms.
