What Causes Outer Thigh Pain While Climbing Stairs?

For the past 10 yrs I have had terrible pain in my outer thigh while climbing up stairs or stepping up from a curb ( ilio tibia band syndrome? ). Now I have an added problem - pain in the front of both thighs when getting out of a chair. What could this be? Thank you.

Hi,

I understand your concern.

The pain could be due to arthritis, lack of movement, lack in magnesium and vit.D.

Please get checked vit.D, calcium, magnesium levels and discuss further with rheumatologist to determine the right diagnosis.

All the best.
