Suggest Treatment For Burning And Tingling Sensation On Thigh

I have been experiencing a burning and stinging sensation in my thigh whenever I stand or walk too long. I only get relief when I sit down for a while. Recently I have been having the same symptoms along with sharp, prickly pain even when I am seated. It is becoming more frequent. I fear it may be a blood clot but I travel for work extensively and haven t been able to see the doctor.
