Back leg pain about 1.5 to 2 inches above the knee, what can it be?

Hello all. For the past three days, I feel like someone beat me on this part of the legs with a bat. I can’t walk for more than 7 minutes or it hurts and feels like I will fall and I get dizzy. I also can’t bend on the knees or have trouble getting up from a chair, very painful. I havent been doing any exercise nor strenuous activities lately. I took the car to work and hardly even walked. I get these pains from time to time but never like this. I sm not menstruating or nowhere near it. The ONLY thing I can think of is that I had a bad kidney/urinary tract infection a few days ago and treating it with antibiotis. Any help?
Thanks!

It sounds like you may have a pinched sciatic nerve. I find that if I have been sitting for long periods of time I have the same problem. I usually go to my chiropractor and, if I can, get a massage and it really helps.
