Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For Lumps In Both The Calf Muscles
I have lumps on the inside of both calf muscles. They have appeared quite quickly (about 2 - 3 weeks) and are quite hard. Actually they feel like muscle tissue. Age 54, non smoker, fairly sedentary. On Amlodipine 5mg, Losartan 100mg and simvastatin 40mg
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to muscle knots. The various muscle fibers start to stick to each other and become adhered. This new hard and lumpy feeling is a muscle 'knot'. Muscle 'knots' are incredibly common but common doesn't mean they are normal or harmless. The muscle knots should be evaluated by an orthopedist.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
