by the symptoms that you have described it seems you either have
1 deep vein thrombosis
2. severe vasculitis of small vessels and thrombo phlebitis ( Inflammation of blood vessels)
3 may be severe inflammation of calf muscles
you urgently need to see a vascular surgeon who will be the best person to guide you further
