Numbness in thigh
:) About 1 year ago i had burning,tingling,pins/needles on the outer left thigh just about the knee, which resulted in numbness (about 2 inches in length). As of recent, same sensations front of same thigh with numbness comes and goes. I have no back pain, and no loss of function in muscle, seems topical and very irritating. Past history includes carpel tunnel(no surgery) not bothersome I do sleep in splints when it is. One inguinal hernia repair, 10 years ago no compliants, Im very active and have no other apparent health issues at the moment. I do smoke. Any help greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Thank you for your question, here's the link to the answer:
http://askdoctorjoshua.com/2006/12/0...taneous-nerve/Thank you for such a prompt reply Dr. Entrapment of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve actually sounds wonderful compared to the other alternatives. I did forget to mention I did do the splits when falling off our boat last week, however symptoms had started before this, maybe aggravated it since one leg was over a rail. lolllllllllll I have gained a few pounds but not obese and no diabetes or tight clothing at 55years old.
I will see my primary physician after the holidays for further diagnosis. For now ibuprofen and more rest. I loath taking pills but oh well.
Thank you again for your time and wisdom.
Sincerely,
