A burning / smarting sensation in my leg (Only when I think of it)

Hello there,

I get a feel like burning/smarting sensation in my left leg especially at nights or leisure times. I didn't consult a Dr. yet, so I don't take any medications.

I never had any leg injuries apart from a torn tissue about 2 years ago which is completely ok.

A point to consider is, I only get this feeling when I remember about it. This never happens when I'm seriously involved in something. At night's when I get this feeling if I'm able to divert my mind out of this uncomfortableness (which is very difficult), this feeling disappears. So I get up and start walking, using the phone, switching the TV on etc. But the trick won't work. My this behaviour disturbs my children & wife at night. Somehow I'm obliged to bearup it for a long time, until I become too sleepy, so that my sleep over takes this feeling. This is terrible & really a serious issue for me. I'm 49 years old. Did any of you reading this, has similar experience? Please advise. Thanks a lot in advance.
