it is caused by blood being trapped for more then 2 seconds this is what causes the pain in your inner thigh.

It is most likely a cramp of the muscle. These seem to happen more frequently as we age.

The best thing to do is to stretch that muscle as far as you can by placing the inside of the foot on the affected leg flat on the floor and squatting with the other leg and hold it there for about 30 seconds. It should feel better in a few seconds.

You must hold that position for awhile or it will come right back.

Often oddly, punching the location of the pain helps. Also vigorous rubbing or massaging.

Pain killers are useless because the cramp will subside on it's own in a few agonizing minutes.

Sciatic pain can be identified by its definite pattern, usually starting in your buttocks, but can also start from the lower back. A feeling of pain and tenderness is then extended down the back of your thigh and into the lower part of your leg, sometimes the pain even reaches the soles of your feet. This is a gnawing pain that tends to spasm.

The clinical diagnosis and medical term used for sciatica is radiculopathy. It means that a disc has protruded from its normal position in the vertebral column and is putting pressure on the radicular nerve, situated in the lower back. Radiculopathy or sciatica is broadly used to describe a form of pain that radiates into your leg. Pain running down the back of your leg is symptomatic to sciatica, but pain running in the front of your leg, or general lower back and leg pain is technically not true symptoms of sciatica.

Shooting pain may be attributed to a number of different aetiologies. Depending on associated symptoms and patient histories, shooting pain may either be muscular, if the patient has had recent muscle strain, or neurological, which is much more common. Shooting pain which travels up the back of the thigh is referred to as 'sciatica' and can occur due to injury to the leg. However, sciatica can be due to other serious conditions and so should be investigated by a medical practitioner. Doc D, MD Shooting pain may be attributed to a number of different aetiologies.
