This really needs a doctor.

It is possible to get gout in the hip... not common ..but possible.

When I strained my hip in a fall...it was very painful and I couldn't move the leg much at all. It was all tendon related.
I ended up in PT and had ultrasound and IFc treatments which helped tremendously.

That numbness sounds like MP. That can come from the back, abdomen or where the nerve exits the abdomen under the inguinal ligament.

You really need to see a doctor, to make sure you don't have tumor or hernia there!
