General & Family Physician 's  Response
welcome.

Your genuine concerns have been thoroughly reviewed by me and I assure you help in the best possible way.

It may be due to the tendonitis ( muscle tendon inflammation ) or it may be due to hip joint, or the nerves supplying the muscles of thighs are causing the issue.


You need to consult a Neurologist for in-office visit for complete evaluation and treatment. Neurologist will run a battery of tests after doing a physical examination and will treat accordingly.


Hope it helps. Have a nice time ahead.

Regards!
