I have a tightening sensation in my lower leg when i walk, as if someone is squeezing my leg with their fist and pressing when i stop, the feeling goes away immediately, i don't have a problem with circulation, thrombus and diabetes, i'm very worried?

Do you stretch before you start walking. You might try to massage your leg before you start walking. Possibly seek out a Physical Therapist.
