Anyone experiencing or have experienced numbness (not pain) in their thigh when standing or walking?
 
Might be a nerve problem.

When I had sciatica I'd often get numbness there as well
 
Honestly, see a doctor. If it happens regularly when standing it could be a nerve or circulation thing. If it just came out of the blue and is staying numb, it could be somethings scary as hell like MS. So, see a doctor.

Had that a few years back. Scared the shit out of me. Went to see my family quack, he said- before we go after the worst case scenario, here's some multi vitamins. Knowing your lifestyle, it might just be poor diet. It went away after about a week. Big sigh of relief.
 
If it doesnt go away after 15 days, amputate that leg!!!
















































I'm only kidding. Please don't that!
Unless of course the leg really bugs you, and it needs to go!

Just kidding....... LOL
 
Sciatica. Go see your dog and get an MRI of your spine.

In the meantime, stop lifting or carrying heavy stuff.

what medical school did his DOG go to??
thats 1 smart Dog

sorry OAGRE
had to do it...

:behindsofa:

Seriously though..there are many factors that may be causing it
best to get it checked out
pinched nerve
poor circulation
might just be ligaments or muscles tightening around legs nerves causing it
when i sit for a longtime i have the same issues...especially on long flights in cramped seats!
 
Get your doc (or dog, lol) to refer you to a neurologist. They'll do an EMG test - I've had two and it pretty much works like this:

That's a "ruff" start to my morning!
 
I think the medical term for that condition is NUMB NUTS.

Not surprising if it was diagnosed by a dog. Sniff... Sniff.. Sniff... "Numbnuts, numbnuts, rolf!". But again, get to your family doctor (or an walk in clinic / emergency room if you don't have one). Numbness can be a sign of any number of potentially very serious things. Or it could be something silly. Nobody here knows.
