Is it pinched nerves?

I woke up this morning and had a stinging or sharp type pain in my thigh.. So much that it practically kills me even trying to walk or bend over to get something. I can’t resist to scream when this happens because it hurts so bad..

My mom said it might be a pinched nerve, but I dont know because I have never heard of it.

Could it be pinched nerves that is causing this horrible stinging/sharp type pain in my thigh ? It is in my right thigh..Even sitting in a chair is painful.. Its happeneda few times before though, but thought I just pulled something but now it continues to come back..

  1. You did not say if you had been doing any lifting before this happens. If it has happened several times it might be what some call a "pinched nerve". Basically what this term means is that something is pressing on one of the nerves coming from your back to your leg. Since you said it continues to come back you might have a bulging or herniated disk in your back. It might also be what is called foraminal stenosis which is where the nerve leave the spinal cord and goes through an opening and on to your leg. The place to start would be to see your doctor and probably have an MRI done on your back to see if any of these things are present and then take it from there. Good luck to you
