Suggest Remedy For Hard Bruising And Knots On Lower Legs
I have hard bruising and knots on my lower legs. I have had them for about 3 weeks now and just recently my legs have started swelling. They are very sore to touch. I had the hard knots and bruising when I was pregnant but was never told what it might be. I was told they wouldn t be able to do anything for me since I was pregnant. I haven t had any issues since I had my kids (3 years ago). Now all the sudden it has reoccured. Could you tell me what it might be? I also am not on any medication. Just the Mirena for birth control.
HI Welcome to healhcaremagic After going through your query I concluded that you may be having deep vein thrombosis or varicose veins. You should get your venography of lower done to confirm it. Another reason can be vitamin deficiencies leading to muscle cramps. Till then you can take EvionLC and vitamin B and C. Analgesic such as ibuprofen can be taken for pain relief. You can discuss your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
