Are your thighs tingling?
If your thighs tingle, you could have Skinny Jeans Syndrome.
I too read that twice, but it’s a real thing.
It’s a compression of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, which runs on the outside of your thigh, according to Health magazine. You get it from wearing those tight, tight skinny jeans.
Treatment? Get bigger jeans. (That’s the magazine talking, not me.)
Or, wear denim leggings with enough stretch for comfort.

Where was SJS in the 70s? 80s? I wear skinnies and have no issues. Perhaps because I buy them big enough they don’t rip when I put them on.
