What Causes Severe Hot Flashes On The Thighs?

Hello Doctor , I am getting a hot flush in the inside of my thigh just above the right knee. It comes and goes and can happen anytime during the day. Happens more than once throughout the day. It comes suddenly and goes suddenly. The heat comes like a few seconds apart then goes away. My skin is not hot when I touch it. Looking forward to hearing from you on this...thanks in advance.

Hello,

As per my surgical experience, the severe hot flashes on thighs without evident skin changes of temperature indicates possible neurological issue of sensory receptors or nerves. Need an assessment with expert neurologist to look into the matter in greater details and diagnose it thoroughly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
