Upper Left Thigh Pain
by caramelsmom, Jun 26, 2008 08:07AM
Hi, I've been experiencing upper left thigh pain but only when I sleep on hard surfaces. For instance I will sleep on my right side and wake up to pain on my left side which seems to be the primary pain area. If I sleep on both a mattress and a box spring but the box spring is on the floor I'm in pain. If I sleep on a hard couch I suffer pain (again in left thigh). Is there a reason for this? Its always the left thigh no matter where I sleep unless its on a soft couch and then the pain is much less, its present but much much less.

Since when are you having the pain?Is there any history of injury to the spine?You should see a neurologist and get the evaluation done.It could be due to nerve compression or entrapment.Unless an examination is done it is difficult to diagnose the disease.
