    It sounds to me like you may be pinching a nerve - do you have a comfortable chair? Do you sit on it in a strange way? You may just need to get up and walk around once in a while at work.
    If you never get them outside of work, it's probably something you're doing or not doing in that environment and not something serious to worry about.

    I sometimes get those as well. Fixed them my flexing and stretching my legs every few minutes while I work.



    PS: It's sad this isn't the sarcastic replies forum. "You've got The Aids" was the first place my brain went, and it went downhill from there. :|

    So long as there's no redness or bruising around the area, it does sound like an impinged nerve.
    If you notice any redness or bruising, please consider a trip to the doc - that's more a sign of deep vein thrombosis.

    Mix in some groin stretches and quad stretches when you get home from work, it might help.
    Do you get any form of exercise daily?

    I got those too

    I just get up and walk around for a couple minutes every so often and they go away just fine.

    I exercise 5 days a week, and in good shape.

    I can't frequently check as I'm at work, but last bathroom trip I noticed around the area I was getting the pain there was a red vein there noticeable for about an inch's length...looks like I'm scheduling a doctor's appointment, huh?

    I would say yes - deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can be a significant health risk, but is very easily treated.
    Better safe than sorry, in my opinion.
