Burning Thigh Pain

How is Burning Thigh Pain diagnosed?

A brief medical history and physical examination by our experts is the first step towards the diagnosis of the condition. Then our doctors may recommend the following diagnosis procedures:

• Imaging studies: Such as X-rays, CT scans, or an MRI scan depending on the condition. X-rays are the most common.
• Electromyography: It is a test that is used to measure the electrical discharge produced in muscles to diagnose muscle disorders. The procedure involves a small electrode insertion onto the muscle to record the electrical activity.
• Nerve conduction study: It involves the use of patch-style electrodes that are placed on the skin to stimulate the nerve with a low electrical impulse. This helps in diagnosing damaged nerves.
• Nerve blockage technique: In this procedure, ultrasound imaging is used to guide a needle into the thigh near the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. If this procedure relieves pain, it is confirmed that the patient is suffering from this condition.
