Stabbing burning pain on top outer thigh?

Answer 1

Meralgia paresthetica is a condition characterized by tingling, numbness and burning pain in the outer part of your thigh. The cause of meralgia paresthetica is compression of a nerve - the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve - that supplies sensation to the skin surface of your upper leg. Common causes of this nerve compression include tight clothing, obesity or weight gain, and pregnancy. Meralgia paresthetica can also be due to nerve injury, from a disease such as Diabetes or from trauma. Treatment for meralgia paresthetica is directed at relieving the compression and usually consists of self-care measures, such as wearing looser clothing or losing weight. In severe cases of meralgia paresthetica, treatment may include medications to treat the discomfort or, rarely, surgery.

Answer 2

Could be an inflammation of the ganglions in the upper leg by the groin.

Never let that go unattended. I am sure that will go with anitbiotics, but I highly recommend GO TO A DOCTOR. Inflammation ofthe ganglions is a strike directly to your system. It will get very bad in no time.
