What does lower backache along with itching on the right thigh indicate?
Patient: I had pain in my lower back, right side. It was accompanied by sensitivity to touch , along with some itchiness in my right thigh. Now, the pain and sensitivity are gone but a rash has developed. I thought the “rash” may have been a result of constant rubbing and scratching, but I’m not sure. The rash does not cover my thigh; it’s like 3 separate rashes. All rashes are in fatty parts of my thigh. They hurt as a fresh bruise would and are not overly itchy. I’m taking ibuprofen if necessary and have put both anti itch cream and antibacterial cream on them. It’s only been about 24 hours since the rash developed. Doctor: Hello,The symptoms that you have described points to disc prolapse and in my opinion an investigative modality like an MRI should be of help. Kindly consult a doctor for the same.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards, Dr. Fahim Sheik
