The numbness and tingling in the upper thigh is most likely coming from either your spine or a pinched nerve in your groin. A pinched nerve in the spine, herniated disc, foraminal stenosis, sciatica, can cause symptoms in the thigh, usually also associated with pain. The other potential cause is a pinched nerve as it travels through your groin under your inguinal ligament. Often getting pinched with weight changes. Work ups and treatments vary a bit, but try not to let it persist, as it can become permanent.
