For your pain in the thigh I'd do 1/2 patch the long way over both points in this diagram showing the two major nerves entering the thigh: (disregard the green area).
The two nerves are marked... lateral femoral nerve and femoral nerve.
Put 1/2 patch over the upper thigh where these enter the thigh muscle. There may be some variation in people where these nerves exit. But these spots worked for me when my MP pain was terrible. I used the patches every day for 2 weeks, and then went into a remission after years of suffering.
