Is it your upper/inner thigh?

If its the upper part, there is a nerve that crosses from the abdomen to the leg, near the hipbone.  If it gets irritated by the incision, then pain, numbness, "needles and pins" and other wierd feelings can occur in the leg.

Usually goes away on it 's own but DO let your doc know and keep us posted.
