No idea but that stood out as vascular first as it's only in the lower legs.
The extreme and traveling pain sounds like nervous system.
(such as lack of ankle cartilage, clot, pinched nerve, toxic buildup, other is setting off a wild localized nervous system response)
Lower lumbar/pelvic nerves can affect both legs.
(injury, pinched by bone loss, cyst, other such as hyper-inflated bladder,)
Bone density in older women can lead to small fractures and possible tendon tear.
The symptom is not always the cause in medicine and mechanics.
Any change with stretching or exercise? Feet elevated? Fetal curl position? Hot/cold compresses? Fluid intake?
