Thigh pain can be a symptom of a muscle strain, fracture, or nerve injury. Acute trauma or joint injuries can cause pain, swelling, bruising, and discomfort with walking or doing stairs. Thigh pain can also occur due to chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease causing nerve compression, or muscle infection.
