as xolynnyxo describes, that's how blood clot would feel.
if your body is producing blood clots, and it gets to your leg the pain would be something like a sharp one. i know this because my mother suffered from them frequently. i didn't know at the time that her pain was caused by those clots. eventually a clot got to her brain and gave her a massive stroke from which she wouldn't recover.
if you have good reason to believe you're dealing with clots, or even if you suspect it, i would suggest doing something about it. it's more urgent than you think.

A blood clot in your lung can cause a sharp knife like pain upon inspiration, elevated heart rate and shortness of breath.
