What Causes Appearance Of Lumps On Legs While Running?

I have several lumps on my legs. They pop out and are seen when I run, tighten my legs or squat. I have had them for about 10 years and was just wondering what it was. I am a runner and wondered if it had anything to do with that? I noticed I gained a couple more since I have been running more mileage.

Hi,Dear,Good evening.Thanks for your query to Health Care Magic.I studied your query in-depth. In my opinion the increasing lumps on your legs after running-are the increasing varicose vein lumps which is the after effect of the existing mild-CESE(Chronic Exertional Compartment Syndrome-?) since last 10 yrs.After the run , the muscles swell in each of the leg compartments and that increases the failed varicose vein system of legs,with more strangled venous blood causing more-varicose veinous lumps to appear after the running.Thats how it explains the few couple of lumps in legs gained lately by -as you increased running for more mileage.Warning-Alert-You should attend to podiatrists- the experts who surgically treat the CESE which would reduce your-varicsoe lumps in the legs post-running. Hope this would clarify the worry you had.Would love to Wellcome your queries to HCM.
