What Is The Cause Of Cold Feeling On The Leg Of A Child ?

My son has this cold feeling in his right leg. He has had it a few times before but it happens sporadically. It woke him up tonight and he once had it in class. He says it hurts. He uses to sometimes just say his leg was hurting so I thought it may have to do with him growing. Otherwise he is very healthy, runs, plays, has good doctor check ups and he loves vegetables.
