Leg burning: If in the thigh could be meralgia paralytic compression of lateral femoral cutaneous nerve , or could be a form of sciatica or piriformis syndrome ( where sciatic nerve is compressed by buttock muscles ( L4 compression) . Could see if motrin helps if not allergic, would consider MRI if persists , rarely could be ovarian , if ruptured/ large cysts / f/u/ w/ doc
