Hi all, this isn't for me but actually for my girlfriend.

This morning when she left the room she noticed a strange numb feeling just above the knee on her left leg. Although it feels numb, she feels a slight tingly feeling when touched. It has remained constant all day and although not causing any pain is slightly worrying as no cause is apparent.

She has also experienced a similar feeling during a previous incident:
Around three years ago she had a horse riding accident in which she came off the horse and fell through a fence landing on her upper thigh and right buttock. This caused a numbness which has slowly receded over the years but is still slightly in effect in her upper/outer leg. Although never checked by a doctor.

If you have had any similar experience or know what may be causing it as hasn't changed throughout the day it would be very much appreciated
Thank you
