What Causes Numbness In Upper Thigh And Front Hip Area?

seem to be a nerve compression.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
It seems to be a condition that affects the nerve ,which supplies sensation to this area.
The most common cause is a condition called Meralgia Paresthetica,which is a disorder caused by compression of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve.
The symptoms include numbness in the outer part of thigh .
The most common causes of nerve compression may include obesity ,past injuries or surgeries in hip area (inguinal hernia surgery etc), wearing tight belts,tight pants etc.
I would suggest to consult your physician to confirm the diagnosis .The treatment consist in relieving the compression on nerve.
Hope it helps.
Let me know if you need further help.
Kind regards,
Dr.Rovena Murati
