Season One: Three Stories...that's the episode that reveals the answer to your question. He had a muscle infarction in his upper leg, but his doctors misdiagnosed it and wrote it off as not being anything threatening. He was given antibiotics and bed rest. But blockage in his leg just continued, and his muscle tissue began dying. He pointed this out to his doctors, and they said that he needed to have the leg amputated. House, being his usual stubborn self, refused the surgery. His doctor [Dr. Cuddy] suggested a middle ground. A surgery that would go in a take the clot out. He just wanted to wait it out though. House asked to be put in a comatose state because the pain was so bad. While he was out, Stacy [his girlfriend at the time] ordered the middle ground surgery to be initiated. The surgery left him in chronic pain for the rest of his life though [as Cuddy had warned].

If, when he answered this question on the show, he told the truth (big if!) the muscle in his thigh died.
I recently bought the Season 1&2 pack also. This is the only TV show I watch with any regularity and I am thuroughly hooked!

He had an infarction (blood clot) in his leg, and it is later explained that it was left untreated for three days and this created severe permanent muscle and nerve damage to the leg.
