Right leg problem
Hello Doctors. There's a weird feeling that I'm observing about my right leg. There is no apparent pain but it feels different. This feeling is after I discovered a small and non-painful bump on the inner arch of my right foot five days ago. The lump has disappeared now. Also the muscles on the right side of my right thigh near to the knee are stiff and mildly painful when touched. What's the reason behind this? Can this be DVT, I'm very anxious. Kindly answer, thank you. [Context -
1) There was an incident 1.5 months back when I landed weirdly on my foot after jumping a wall. 2 days after the incident I had pain in my right thigh when I used to bend my right leg, however it resolved by itself without treatment in 2 weeks. Can this be the reason?
2) I also regularly exercise 30 minutes of indoor cycling 2 times a day. Can overexertion cause this?
3) I have been taking Veloz D for the last 20 days. Could this be the side effect of this medicine?]
