Guest guest Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 I bumped the back of my calf on the corner of a booth while dining out one day. It doesn't sound too bad but boy did that really hurt. I must have hit it just right. Yikes. Just a freak thing and wham-o! It had a big bruise for awhile but after three weeks, there's a lump in that area. Could this be a broken blood vessel? There's no more bruise or anything there anymore...just this weird lump. I'm hoping it's nothing serious and would I even know if it's a blood clot? I'll give the doctor a call on Monday but just curious as to what may have caused this and if it's reason for concern. Thanks! ~Diane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
