Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Can you answer me few questions?
Did you have any injury in recent past? Are you on any medications for blood, heart related problem or any vascular disease?
According to my opinion it is related to vascular disease or lymphatic vessel inflammation.
Consult surgeon for it and get properly examined along with Doppler test of leg.
Hope you will get proper diagnosis and management.
