What's wrong with my leg??

Firstly. I've been to the GP but they weren't terribly helpful!

Since Tuesday my leg has really ached, like a deep throb along the back of my leg. It's mainly in the calf but occasionally back of the thigh and kind of into the hip.

GP has excluded dvt on account of both legs measure 15cm equally, the sore leg isn't red, hot or swollen.

I haven't notably injured it at all. I've tried the odd paracetamol and a magnesium spray (I suffered leg pains in pregnancy so found this in the bathroom cabinet).

GP said it's just one of those things Confused is it?! I mean I can walk fine and stand on my tiptoes but it's always just really achy and wakes me up at night.

Any ideas?! I'm 34 and otherwise in pretty good nick.

Could be sciatica, or pain from worn out discs in your back. Do some sciatica stretches (you tube) and see if that helps.
