What Causes Painful Thigh And Knees In Pregnant Woman?

i woke up this past saturday, 2 days ago, with a pain in my upper inner thigh. it does not go away, it hurts most when walking on that leg, using the leg while driving. the pain feels in one spot, but goes down like in a line down to the knee where it hurts to the touch (the line, not the knee). i do not see any redness or swelling, just the pain. i feel very little pain in the calf on same leg. i am 12 weeks pregnant

Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Pain in the thigh or knee is not related to pregnancy.
It can be neuronal pain or pain due to muscle spasms.
I would suggest you to consult a neurologist for proper examination, investigation and treatment accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
