hello welcome to healthcaremagic.
I am Dr. Arpit varshney and i will surely help you out.
the best explaination for your symptoms is peripheral nerve involvement, most probably sciatica.
sciatica is compression of sciatic nerve or its branches leading to tingling sensation in the legs.
its an orthopaedic condition which is treated symptomatically by weight loss, diet control, physiotherapy and exercise.

however i would like to rule out any fracture in your case by asking a history of trauma in that site and by getting an xray of legs done.

also get a nerve conduction studies done.

for symptomatic relief please take diclofenac and ranitidine.

I hope this helps.
please feel free to revert back in case of any further concerns/queries.
i wish for your good health
thank you.
