I have a strange pain situation in that an area about the size of a fooball on the top of my left (thigh) leg feels different in various ways. At times it feels like I spilled very hot water on it - at other times it feels cold and numb - at other times very itchey and some times just creepy crawly. The skin area appears no different than the right leg which has no problems.
Wondering if anyone else has experienced such a wide variety of feelings to one area of the body. |

Sounds like nerve problems. It sounds a little like my sciatica. Depending on how you move your leg depends on what the pain feels like. Well for me anyway.

I agree with Windy, I have had the same feeling. After one of my surgeries on my lower back I felt sometimes as if someone was pouring cold water down my leg. At the time I felt more coolness than burning. It is definitly nurves. I was told by my Neuro that cooling is a good thing...the nerves are healing and regenerating. I hope this is what is happening for you.
Give your doc a call and see what light he has to shed on the whole thing...take care my dear!!
