Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hey so i was coughing the other day and had this stinging pain in my front left thigh. My leg hurt that day but nothing came of it. A couple days ago, I noticed I could see little veins in my leg and now feels like I have a charlie horse around that thigh part where I had the stinging when coughing.

Hi...
The cause for Charlie's horses are basically over exertion and dehydration.. May be your calf on other day would strained your muscle but may not be a causitive factor of it... If I were your treating doctor...then I would recommend you.. To maintain hydration level...drunk lot if fluids...ORS.. To engage in recovery activity like swimming occasional massage...stretching.. To work in the gym for muscle endurance... keep your core temperature cool...by taking cold showers...
Hope this is helpful for you Revert back in case you need any further clarification. .
