Very itchy lower back of the leg, on the calf

I have been searching the Web looking for reasons for answers as to why the lower back of the leg, on the calf of one of my legs has become aggressively itchy and I have read on this site that this has happened to others albeit on the shin. Maybe you could help and tell me if it could possibly be put down to my over-active thyroid gland. Thanks...
