Peripheral Neuropathy (Nerve inside Right Thigh)
 
I have Numbness of skin on thigh above the right knee (right side of thigh).
A nerve running by the right side of the knee and the skin above it seems numb.
Is there a cure for it. Thanks.

Welcome to NeuroTalk.

We can't diagnose you here exactly, but it sounds like a condition called Meralgia Paresthetica.

We have a forum here you can read, to learn about it.

Causes of this are complicated. So you will learn the causes and possible medical treatments if you read the posts over there.

The drawing fig. 2B shows the lateral femoral nerve distribution and the text there explains it.
