Any doctors around? Intense burning in leg a week after fall

[Middleoftheroad]

I had a fall last week (non snow related) and quite a nasty cut to my leg, bruising to the other.

A couple of days later both legs were aching (like they might two days after very heavy exercise) and since then when I touch a certain spot under my cut knee on the worst leg, it feels almost like it is the top of a longer nerve running to the right side (below knee and to front 'calf' area)causing a slight burn. My legs are still a bit bruised.

Today (9 days later) I knelt down for the first time and a sharp, searing pain, an intense burn shot through the inside whole area, like a much deeper version of the slight burn.

What might this be? A torn ligament?

I would be concerned about a blood clot. You need professional advice ASAP.

Thank you Aquamarine I'll ring my GP first thing as that hadn't occured to me.

I’m not medical but would call 111 for advice now incase you need treatment /to be seen sooner than tomorrow.

They could advise you whether it can wait or not.
