Hello and welcome to HCM,
Tingling sensation and numbness in thigh is suggestive of compression or irritation of nerve supplying the thigh.
Pain and burning sensation also suggest the same.

I suggest you to consult an orthopedician for clinical assessment and relevant investigations.

Thanks and take care
