Hip flexion is one of the best motions for improving meralgia paresthetica pain. Lunges strengthen the muscles necessary to perform these motions, such as the gluteus medius and minimus and the rectus femoris. To perform a lunge, simply maintain a straight back while taking a large step forward. The back foot’s heel should lift off of the ground. Lower the entire body until both knees bend at 90-degree angles. Return to a standing position and repeat. Even if only one leg has pain, repeat the exercise equally on both sides.
