Stinging burning patch on thigh. Any ideas?

[MrsLouisTomlinson]

Obviously I'll see the GP if it persists but I was wondering if you all had any ideas what this could be and if it sounds concerning.

On my right upper thigh I have a patch of skin that has developed a stinging burning sensation. It feels like it's sunburnt and is super sensitive to touch and clothes. There is no rash or visual skin changes that I can see but it's getting really quite painful.

Anyone got any ideas?

No idea but watching with interest as I had this on the top of my foot a few months ago and it was agony, then eventually went on its own.
Hope yours clears up OP, or someone suggests what it could be

My stinging/burning pain on my upper breast has been diagnosed as neuropathic pain. The stinging is common apparentky in this sort of pain

Outer thigh? Meralgia paraesthetica?

Yep, agree with Meralgia Paraestherica. I get this, and also patches on my lower legs that get really painful then just disappear.
I was given an MRI to check no compression in hip/spine as have had several hip surgeries, but it is basically a functional nerve pain.

Hmmm, I've had a quick Google and that could fit although it is inner thigh also. Think I will make a docs appointment of it doesn't settle on its own in the next day or two. Thank you.

@MrsLouisTomlinson did you ever find out what this was? Experiencing exactly the same right now..
