Traumatic Injury
Trauma is a medical term used to describe physical damage. This is a serious condition, for it leaves severe injuries in the body. There are two types of physical trauma; the first one is blunt force trauma. This type of trauma is referred to as the striking or hitting of an object or force in the body. This often causes concussions, deep cuts, and broken bones. The other type is called penetrating trauma.

Any trauma experienced by the thigh can cause pain. This is because the nerves in the thigh are affected by the traumatic blow or injury. Some of its symptoms are bruising and a painful sensation in the thigh area. The appearance of swollen and tender thighs will also occur, especially when the traumatic injury is serious.
However, thigh trauma can be classified into degrees. Some cases are mild enough that the pain is only experienced when contact is on the affected area. There are also cases in which an immediate burning sensation and stabbing are experienced. This condition leans towards severe cases of thigh pain and injury.
