For a few weeks now I’ve had this wierd pain in my leg but now it’s moved up to my thigh (quad) but it’s changed it’s now like a deep ache. When I bend over it hurts, when I strain too much it hurts. I can’t explain it but it hurts, aches , throbs. Sometimes it burns/tingles 😩😩😩 does anyone have any idea what it can be obviously I know your not drs, and I will make an appointment if needed but getting an appointment with a doctor now is like gold dust! AIBU to make a drs appointment tomorrow ? P.s it’s also in my right arm aswell sometimes 😩

I did think this but would it only affect one side and my forearm too on the same side?

Oh no not arm, must have missed that bit sorry

It's more unusual for pain to spread from a leg to an arm. So I would keep a diary of it, anything that makes it worse and the type of pain so you can give clear details to the GP

Are you hoping it will just go away by itself? Problem is, it might get worse. Go and get it checked!

Yeah I am 🫣 I have a habit of overthinking so that’s what I’m worrying I’m doing 🫣 I will go tomorrow if I can get an appointment probably for them to tell me it’s nothing and I’m being dramatic 🙄

Sciatic nerve is stretched when you bend, back of leg and a branch in thigh ( google). See your gp!

You need to see your GP.

I think you should have it checked out since it’s affecting your arm too.
