After a 1.5 hour flight, a sudden lump developed on my calf. It was very painful and swollen. I rubbed it until until the lump went away and then a huge red bruise developed. The next day there was a large, round, red bruise and in the center the skin was back to its normal color and the bump was gone. Thoughts? Age 68.
Thanks for sharing your health concerns with us!well, it seems that it could be some engorged vein or a lymph channel! However, could be some bursa or sebaceous cyst also...not to worry much...if you are worried much a USG with Doppler TEST IS THE BEST WAY TO CONFIRM IT! ...... all the best......!
