Please : Please see your physician or go to the er. Your symptoms might just be a muscle sprain, but it could also represent a dvt, a clot in the deep veins of your leg. This can be very serious. A piece of the clot can break off, float in the veins and lodge i the lung. Very dangerous condition. Please get this evaluated. Best wishes.
