to my experience some sports injuries might be the cause of this...and another possible thing could be due to the position you sleep in!
the third possibility is that the back of your leg hurts due to putting a great tension on one of your hamstering muscles causing it to stretch...i recommend that you'd better follow some rehabilitation technique you aid your leg injury to heal faster.
i have posted some a link to such exercises (rehab. tech.s)
Also i should mension that visiting a physiotherapist if the pain is unbearable...till then pain killing drug can help to deal with the situation.

It depends on how the injury happened. If it was sports related it could be muscle damage or it could be something more serious like a DVT (blood clot) I would see your primary doctor before waiting to see a orthopedist.
