For about 5 years, since I was 16, I ve had a kind of constant pressure in my right leg, it sometimes feels like tingling. The pressure is mostly in my inner thigh, but as the years went by I feel it more in my knee. Whenever I stretch my leg there s always a popping sound up and down the leg, I ve been to a doctor and taken an MRI but they couldn t find anything.
Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough neuromuscular assessment is advised along with MRI of the lumbar spine or knee based on the clinical assessment. As the pain looks in the nature of radiation from thigh to leg it can be pinched nerve in the lumbar spine and with the help of MRI the soft tissue status can be understood. Post which with physical therapy you should respond well. Also, if the pain is consistent to the knee and give trouble while walking down or up the stairs then an MRI of knee post clinical assessment is advised. Even in this if the ligaments are fine enough than with simple physical therapy you should respond well. Since you haven't mention which region MRI was taken it will be tough to help. If knee MRI showed normal than a lumbar spine might be needed and vice versaRegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
