Sounds like sciatica - the sciatic nerve gets trapped in the lower back, and sends pain shooting down the leg.
upper outer thigh
The sciatic nerve is the largest single nerve in the human body; it runs from each side of the lower spine through deep in the rear and back of the thigh and all the way down to the foot, connecting the spinal cord with the leg and foot muscles.
A muscle with origin in the ilium, with insertion to the surface of the greater trochanter, with nerve supply from the superior gluteal nerve, and whose action abducts and rotates the thigh.
Yes, because sciatic nerve might be affected.
The Femoral nerve. Wikipedia: Striking the patellar tendon with a tendon hammer just below the patella stretches the quadriceps muscles in the thigh. This stimulates stretch sensory receptors (i.e. muscle spindles) to trigger an afferent impulse in a sensory Ia-nerve fiber of the femoral nerve which synapses (without interneurones) at the level of L4 in the spinal cord, completely independent of higher centres.
The Posterior Femoral Cutaneous Nerve serves the posterior aspect of the thigh.
The posterior side of the thigh, leg, and foot are served by the tibial nerve. The tibial nerve is a branch of the sciatic nerve.

Both supply to the scrotum in males, but the genitofemoral supplies to the anterior surface of the thigh while the illoinguinal nerve supplies the superior medial aspect of thigh.
It is generally called the "groin".Iguinal
The femur is the thigh bone.FemurfemurThe thigh bone is known as the femur. It extends from the pelvis to the knee and it is the longest and strongest bone in the body.
Actually it depend to where you are referring to. The medsical term for the thigh bone is femur, the muscles are ventrogluteal, quadriceps, and vastus lateralis.femurfemur
the posterior femoral nerve.
It's the saphenous nerve
sciatic
The ilioinguinal nerve is a branch of the lumbar plexus that runs through the groin area. It innervates the skin of the upper thigh, pubic region, and the inner thigh. It can be involved in conditions like inguinal hernias or nerve entrapment leading to pain or numbness in its distribution.
