Leg/thigh pain... - Open to All Other Health Topics Message Board

Hello...

I first posted about having pain associated with the msucles in my abdomen (or perhaps my intestines, can't really tell). After that I began to have pain in my groin. Since my lymph nodes removal surgery, I have had an excessive amount of nagging pain in my right thigh and buttox. It feels like a giant bruise to the touch, but with no visible marks. Also, it really feels like an inflamed tendon throughout that whole right side? What is this that I am feelin? Can one actually "feel" a tumor? Let me know if you guys have any ideas...I know this isn't very informative, but I really think that all my symptoms are related.

Can't answer your query
'Cause I'm so weary;
Pain is so personal,
The answer could be eternal.

Sounds like it could be the beginning of a disc problem in you lumbar. I would get it checked out, perhaps an MRI. My herniated disc started out with thigh aching and pain.

------------------
1993: T1 to L1 fusion due to scoliosis
2000: Tore and ruptured L4 L5 & L5 S1-it finally got better after about a year. Did really well for about a year.
June 2002: Had a relapse and tore disc again. It is going on a year and my disc pain has subsided now I am faced with facet joint and bone problems restricting my movement.
Not sure what is next!
Still waiting to go into remission again but I think the damage is done!!
Current doctor say to wait it out.
Going for second opinion in July.

Honestly, the disc is something I didn't even fathom. I'm really sorry to hear that you had a l-fuse. I bet that sucked...
I will say that I've had lower back pain for a long time. But this pain is really strange. It only happens in the morning when I get up though, and not every morning. When I get the pain, it's about right under my ribs. And it feels really hard to take in a deep breath.
