thigh pain

Quadriceps region complaint

Pain in the upper leg between the hip and knee.

The thigh contains large muscles and the femur, so thigh pain may result from muscle strain, injury, or referred pain from the hip or back: I've had thigh pain since I started running again.

Often distinguished from knee pain or hip pain when describing symptoms to a doctor.
