What could be wrong with my leg?!

So since Saturday my lower right leg has been hurting. No exercise or accident etc. It started in my calf, and felt uncomfortable. Yesterday the same. Today the same. It feels like pressure? Like a bad cramp? Like some one is squeezing it from the inside? Today it is also now the front of the calf. There is no swelling, no heat, no rash etc so nothing makes sense… I don’t want to go to the doctor when there is nothing to see and they will probably say it is muscular, take pain killers, elevate etc which I have done but I can’t work out what is wrong with it?

Blood clot? Worth getting checked out.

Get it checked ASAP. It could be DVT. They take calf pain like that really seriously. You need an ultrasound immediately.

Well that did cross my mind but I don’t have any of the other symptoms at all?

There is no swelling, no lumps or anything ….

It also doesn’t hurt to walk on, if it was a clot surely I would have all of those symptoms?

Get it checked,

Still worth getting it checked. My friend had a small DVT and didn't have swelling, hot feeling etc. You won't be wasting anyone's time, honestly.

My sister ended up with 2 pulmonary embolisms and her symptoms were just an ache in one leg.

Get it checked, its not worth the risk.
