What Causes Heaviness In Thigh?
My co-worker has been complaining of a feeling of mass in his left thigh. It s been 1 year and it started when he was sitting for a long time and his left leg and ankle started swelling. It is no longer swollen but there is still the weird mass feeling. He had gotten x-ray and MRI and the doctor check the vein integrity and everything came back normal. He will be going in next week for scan. What do you think is wrong?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The presence of a mass in the thigh can be related to many medical conditions.
Lumps can be caused by infections, inflammation, tumors and trauma.
I suggest to do an xray to check the nature of the mass and decide of proper treatment.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
