Sudden calf pain. but pain in upper thigh near butt for a week or two. started running about a month ago. dvt? or mire likely overuse or injury?

Overuse: This would be a rare location for a blood clot. It sounds more like an overuse problem--you started running too hard too fast or a strain from an abnormal gait or footwear
