A member asked:
What does it mean when you have a burning numb sore pain on the left outer thigh towards the knee?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Inflammation: An inflammatory process such as tendonitis or an internal knee derangement such as cartilage disease or damage may cause this discomfort. Another possibility is nerve pain referred from a disc problem in the low back or from inflammation of the nerve itself. An orthopedic specialist would be best qualified to evaluate you and order appropriate tests in order to make a diagnosis and treat you
