What May Be The Cause Of Burning Sensation From Groin Area To Knee?

Have a chronic burning ache from groin down front of thigh to just above the knee. I cannot fully starighten my leg when pain is at its worse. Use of a cane helps a little bit. Feels better with several hours of rest. If I turn suddenly in a different direction when walking I get a severe sharp shooting pain in groin. I am a 58 yr old female, with mild OA in spine and hips. Could this pain be from the OA possibly progressing? I have a dr appt in July.

Hi,

Yes, it can be due to OA spine. It would have progressed. Doing an MRI spine and review with an ortho surgeon will help you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. S.R.Raveendran, Sexologist
