Call your doctor. That sounds like you may have something like a pinched nerve but it could also be something more serious like a clot. Don't want to scare you but better safe than sorry, talk to the doc about your symptoms!

You possibly pulled a tendon. At the end of the day, when you've been on your feet all day it is even more noticeable when you are tired. Elevate and ice it 2X per day to take down the inflammation. The numbness, is due to a nerve(s) being effected also. A pillow under both knees when you go to bed, will take the pressure off, too.

Possibly sciatica (pinched nerve) I have this same problem but my leg goes numb but it doesn't feel warm or anything abnormal besides the numbing...go to a chiropractor...a general practitioner isn't going to do anything to fix the problem besides possibly giving you a mild pain killer

sounds to me like some sort of nerve damage, try going to webMd, they have a symptom checker , type in your symptoms and it will give you a list of probable causes. If it worries you , causes problesms or persit for more than a few weeks i'd limp on into the doctor. It also could be the "restless leg syndrome" you hear about on TV

please go and see the doctor .... any funny feeling in ur leg and swelling could indicate a deep thrombosis clot which is serious if not treated. This is especially true if there is swelling and the leg is bigger than the other leg and also your leg is hotter than the other leg. PLAY IT SAFE AND SEE THE DOCTOR ASAP! phone up for an emergency appointment. Not trying to scare you but please get it seen to and fast. explain all your symptoms to the registery people at doctor surgery they should give you an appointment asap anyway.
