Squamous Cell Skin Cancer

I was diagnosed with squamous cell skin cancer on the back of my left thigh in April, 2021. It was cut out and the margins were clear. I have gone every 6 months for a whole body check. My last check-up was in March 2024 and my Dermatologist said everything looks good and I don’t have to come back for one year. However, I have a burning like sensation on my left thigh/hip and I asked in September, 2023 and March 2024 and was told it is the nerves making new pathways. I’m just concerned and afraid my cancer has spread. Has anyone else had this? I was also told it’s not common to get squamous cell skin cancer on your thighs? Thanks for any enlightenment you may offer.
