What Could Cause A Stinging Burning Sensation In The Left Side Above The Hip Bone ?
I have a stinging burning in my left side above my hip bone about an inch..right where my belt hits. It itches there all the time. Sometimes it wakes me up at night and sometimes it will burn durring the day.. It tends to burn when my cloths or tight things push against it. I can t feel a bump down deep and it isn t on my outer skin. should I go see the doctor about this?

Hi your burning and stinging sensation at the level of belt above hip which gets worse on having tight things push against it. In my opinion your tight clothes press against one nerve -Lateral cutaneous nerve and you have this feeling . The best way for you would be to avoid tight clothes , belts and if needed to be used , wear them little below the offending area.You can visit a doctor who can have a direct look at the problem.
