Actual evidence for lateral femoral cutaneous nerve pain and treatment, 6 weeks post TT, still having thigh pain.

September 20, 2017
Asked By:Apollo star in San Diego, CA

Im so happy with my abd/bam but one thing has been my thigh pain. Im 6 weeks out and it just is getting more painful. The MA has told me they dont do anything for it and to just massage and rub with loofa. I called to ask if I could get a steroid injection or referral. The MA says the PS wont talk to me till my appointment. I cant find any research evidence that irritating the nerve makes it heal faster. I want to run again without pain.
