Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I m getting short burning sensations in my left thigh that last only a few seconds and then go away over the past 2 days. The burning sensation seems to be on the skin on the front of my thigh. The frequency is not regular. I had it occur yesterday while at work (desk job) and then again today while working around the house (up and walking) What could be causing this?
