Your symptoms are suggestive of peripheral nerve involvement. In your case, the nerves in the skin (cutaneous nerve) over the thigh are affected, this is called as lateral femoral cutaneous nerve.

Taking Treatment For Graves's Disease. Burning Sensation In Hip, Soreness In Skin. Reason For Pain?
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Your symptoms are suggestive of peripheral nerve involvement. In your case, the nerves in the skin (cutaneous nerve) over the thigh are affected, this is called as lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. The common reasons are vitamin B12 deficiency and mechanical pressure over the nerve. All your symptoms can be explained on this nerve involvement. For relief of symptoms, you can take pregabalin or gabapentin capsules. Best wishes, Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology) Senior Consultant Neurologist
