Suggest Treatment For Nerve Pain In The Legs

I am having nerve pain in the top of my legs, especially my right leg after standing for a few hours at a time as a cashier for the holidays. In January I am getting an epidural. But I need something in the meantime for the pain. What can I do for the pain.
