Mine is mostly in the back of my thighs. I sit on the edge of my chair because I dont like how they feel if I am sitting on them.
They sweat terribly. The only way I can explain the way they feel is that something is "eating" them. Like my muscles were run through a meat grinder.
I've had this symptom for 1 1/2 years. The only thing that helps me is a heating pad or hot bath. As soon as the heat is off, it is right back again.
Very frustrating, sorry I can't help you, but I'm still looking for answers. Hopefully, someone will chime in and help us both.

I've been battling Lyme-related peripheral and other neuropathies for a decade. Part of the worst of this was pain in the back of my calves. A tingling, burning soreness -- just about unbearable. I ended up having to take both Neurontin and amitryptilline, both working well for me now (knock on wood) but I'll share something with you. My mother bought a jar of blue menthol rub-on gel for $1 in an odd lot store and gave it to me in desperation. This little jar was a lifesaver and got me through the very worst of times.
