Default Pressure/nerve points? - Only one leg goes to sleep . . .

ReedLB ) writes:
My left leg goes to sleep after about 12 minutes in a boat. I've explored the
possibility of a pressure point on my left hip. I've removed all padding and it
still happens.

I have noticed, though, a sensation around my in-seam -- perhaps even near the
tail bone. Anyone familiar with this? I've started thinking about my days
riding a road bike and wondering if I've damaged a nerve or something.

Any thoughts? Advice?


usual advice is change positions, but every 12 min might be annoying. if
paddling a canoe I'd try changing sides every 10 min and see if that helps.
