The entire thigh muscle is sore and even just sitting here, I can feel it hurting. Its 6:30 now and the shot was done at 11 to give you an idea of how long it has been too.
What do you do for the pain? Besides the obvious of popping an advil, as I try to avoid any medication if at all possible.

I'm sorry to hear about the pain, T. I don't have anything personal to contribute here because I get mine in the gluteus and don't have any discomfort.
Perhaps an ice massage will help. In college we used small paper cups to make ice "popsicles" and used those to give ice massages to affected areas. That will allow you to go deeper and stimulate circulation as opposed to simply laying ice on the area.
I'm sure others will have better feedback for you. I hope you feel better.
