Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have tingling and burning sensation in knee along with numbness. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like femoral nerve dysfunction , sciatica , fibromyalgia or meralgia paresthetica . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may order nerve conduction test , electromyography and MRI Doctor may recommend surgical remove of growth , physical therapy , analgesic and application of heat . For now take proper rest , apply warm compresses and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
