Thigh pain – anyone else dealing with this?

Hi everyone, I’m new to the forum, so please forgive me if this discussion has already been covered before... 🙂 I’ve been dealing with a recurring issue that seems to flare up roughly every two months or so. It first started when I would wake up in the middle of the night with such intense pain in my left thigh that it was physically impossible to lie on that side... That lasted for a few weeks, and then things seemed to settle down, only for the exact same symptoms to resurface later. It happened again just a few days ago, and now the situation has evolved—I can’t even lean on that leg for very long without the pain kicking in. If anyone else here has experienced anything similar, I would truly appreciate any insight or advice you might have 🙂
