What Could Be The Reason For Sharp Pain In Leg While Walking Up The Stairs?
I've just experienced a very sharp pain which ran down the inside of my right leg, starting in my upper thigh and shooting down to my ankle. I was walking up some stairs, when I sat down the pain is still there but slightly less sharp. Ive never experienced this sort of pain before.

Hi,
From history it seems that while walking up stairs there might be having sudden spasm of hamstrings giving rise to severe pain.
Take some analgesic with muscle relaxant tablet for 2 days.
Apply muscle relaxant cream on affected part.
Ok and take care.
