When I wear pants and I walk around and they rub on my legs I get weird/uncomfortable/painful sensations. Anywhere from mild discomfort all the way up to the feeling like a band-aid is being constantly ripped off my skin. When I wear shorts that are above the knees, I no longer have the symptoms.

Any thoughts? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much
