Hello,
Thigh burning sensation can result from an injury to the thigh or exposure to extreme temperatures. Another possible cause is a disorder caused by compression of a nerve running to the outer thigh, the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. I suggest to take an appointment with your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
