Have Numbness And Sharp Pain In The Thigh And Calf

Hi. About a month ago I slipped on ice and fell on my left knee. After the soreness went away I noticed my inner thigh ( right above the side of my knee) was numb to the touch. Now a month later it goes from inner thigh down to middle of my calf, still feeling slightly numb but little sharp pains accompany that now. I'd prob rate pain a 4. Just want to know what it could be. Thanks!

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the chances of soft tissue injury is very likely and that might have bought the peripheral verve inflammation, as said that this is month gone, then in my opinion this has to be investigated, to rule out the other possibility and for that clinical examination is must and taking symptomatic medicine will masking the diagnosis, hope this information helps you, have nice day.
