Knots In The Thigh. Was Administered Epidural Wrongly Years Ago. What Could This Be?

I had an epidural 2 years ago and they put it in wrong. I instantly had shooting pain down my right side of my body and the pain didn t relieve. The next day after I delivered I felt pain in my right thigh. I continued to have pain in that thigh for a week or more. Now I found a knot in the same thigh about 6 weeks ago. And today I found another knot. What could this be?

There dose not seem to be a direct relation with the epidural and your nodes.What I thinck is to get the local USG done and also the doppler study of same limb.If the node is in the groin region,best thing would be to get the biopsy done.
