Leg stiffens when running

2017-09-27 22:26:08
Very small lump forms on left leg and it becomes very stiff while jogging. It stiffens and pains only while running. The whole day it does not complain. If I stretch or put ice pack, it is relieved. This restricts me from exercising. Its been more than a week now. I started applying ice pack a day back.
