I feel like cold water is being splashed on one leg, purple spider veins erupted and my leg feels tight & sore.after a recent flight. is this typical?

Potential Clot.: No, this is not typical. In fact, you are describing symptoms that could very well be indicative of a clot formation in your leg. You need to be seen as soon as possible to remove all doubt. Untreated blood clots can have catastrophic results if allowed to go untreated.
