Answers:

Let me say right off of the top, I am not a doctor nor am I in any other profession that would qualify me to make a diagnosis! I do have chronic back pain with numbness and tingling in my legs and it is caused by "sciatica" (pinched sciatic nerve) So, it sounds to me that it is nerve related. You have either damaged a nerve or you have a pinched or impinged nerve somewhere...back, hip, etc. You should probably go see a doctor because nerve damage is irreversible and the longer you have the numbness, the more damage it is doing...IF it is nerves, which it may not be, but you should probably find out what it is.
You could also have some sort of sebaceous cyst, a lump, or growth that doesn't show from the outside, but would show on an MRI, ultrasound, or x-ray. Either way, you should still have it looked at.
