Life often brings us soreness in the waist and back, fatigue and weakness in the limbs, especially when the thigh suddenly hurts, making it difficult to walk normally. This pain in the thigh may be related to muscle strain, femoral head necrosis, or sciatic nerve pain, requiring different nursing methods for different symptoms.
Gentle massage can be applied to the legs to promote blood circulation, and the leg muscles can be stretched until the pain disappears. What causes sudden leg pain? 1. Muscle strain. Improper exercise or excessive pulling of muscles may lead to muscle damage. After a tendon strain, there may not be a too obvious feeling in the leg when walking. However, if force is applied to the inner side, pain in the thigh may be felt. 2. Femoral head necrosis. Femoral head necrosis causing thigh pain is very serious. If the hip joint femoral head is necrotic, the internal pressure will lose balance, causing the muscles or ligaments in these areas to contract, leading to pain for the patient.
What should be done for leg pain? 1. Pinch the Achilles tendon: The Achilles tendon, also known as the lazy tendon, is located above the back of the heel. Use the middle joints of the thumbs and index fingers of both hands to pinch both sides of the Achilles tendon with force, enduring the pressure, pinching 20 to 30 times. Push the calf: If there is numbness and pain on the back of the calf, push the calf muscle; if there is numbness and pain on the outer side of the calf, push the side of the calf near the little toe. You can sit on a stool, use the palm base or the thenar area to maintain pressure, pushing it up and down, or apply some "massage cream" or a layer of soft cloth on the stool, pushing 20 to 30 times.
