Could Stinging Pain In Lower Right Calf And A Bruise Type Lesion Be A Clot Or Broken Vessel ?
Hello
History of arm/subclavian DVT X2 and PE. Today, I was for less than 30 seconds waiting for a receptionist and had a very strong bee sting, pinching pain in my lower right calf. It would not let up for over an hour. Now I have a large bruise type lesion which has somewhat of an extension out towards a vein. My lower leg is now quite painful and a bit warm over the cite. I wondering if this could be another clot or just a freek spontaneous broken blood vessel. I had no trauma to the area whatsoever and I am not bedridden. I do have a significant history of IT/SVT as well as the above.
