Brief Answer:
Possible venous thrombosis

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
This doesn't sound serious at his point but it may be sign of deep venous thrombosis so I think you should do Doppler ultrasound,keep your legs elevated,apply elastic compresses. If there is leg coldness,paleness or progressive swelling them you should see doctor as soon as possible. Wish you good health.regards
