HI,thanks for your query to HCM.
I studied the facts of your query in all the details given by you.
I reviewed the facts of query in context of the health Concern,which is -a 10 day back shooting pain in back of the Mid-thigh.
Based on the facts of your query,You seem to have Hamstring Strain while stepping
Down a high step.
This is because of the sudden pull on the hamstring muscles with severe strain causing shooting pain in back of the Mid-thigh.
Care suggestions-Primary plan-
In the given situation I would suggest you-
to get the Surgeons or Ortho-Surgeons Check and opinion
MRI of the thigh would help in exact assesment of the extent of strain injury and would help in further plan of treatment.
Infrared Heat therapy would expedite healing of injury.
Cold compresses would be decided after
In this scenario,I would like to confirm My blind assessment based on your facts,where I don't have access to your other physical defects and information.
So I would suggest you to update any more information,so that after getting further information,I could help you out in further suggestions of the case as follows-
What is severity of the thigh pain currently.

Whether you are moving around? What type of problems you have
with your thigh movements?
What are additional problems you want to ask?
Update any information related with the treatment or investigations done so far?

Await for further information in this regard and as asked above,to be reviewed and studied in next session.

Good day!!
