Weird tingling in leg.

For the past couple of days I've noticed that I'll get random tingles running down the back of my left leg. Much like when you lie on your arm and it goes dead. These however happen while I'm standing, doing chinups, or sitting.

I'm wondering should I bother a doctor with it.

    Could be anything from a pinched/impinged nerve (likely) to deep vein thrombosis (very unlikely).

    I'd suggest writing down exactly what you are doing each time you feel it over the next couple days.
    This way, if it keeps up for a few more days, you can go see the doc and have useful information for him.

    The symptom is currently too vague and not serious enough (my UNPROFESSIONAL opinion) to see a doc immediately.
    Give it a few days, monitor it, and go in if it doesn't clear in 3-5days.
    Go in immediately if it gets WORSE of course.
