What Does Numbness In Groin Area While Suffering From Multiple Sclerosis Suggest?

I have Multiple Sclerosis. But I am having some numbness in an area I have never had an issue before. My right side groin region and around to the right buttocks feels numb. The only way I can describe it is when your leg goes to sleep and you feel that weird tingling when you touch it. I just want to make sure it is nothing more serious then maybe a relapse of the MS.
