Thigh tingling
'thigh tingling' _is_ a description of a feeling; there is no further definition (except what part of the thigh!). It may be _caused_ by an entrapped sensory nerve that goes under the groin ligament, tightness of nerves in the low spine, and/or tight muscles in the lower abdomen or buttock. Rarely it may be associated with a wider condition of nerves.
