What causes red bumps on calf with tingling and pain in leg?
Patient: Hi Doc. For the past few days every time I go for a run, when I put pressure on my left leg, these red bumps rise up on my calf and I feel tingling and pain in the leg. When I stop putting pressure, the bumps subside. It almost feels as though my veins are popping out, but I am only 20 years old so I m not sure that can be right. I spend about 10 hours on my feet every day as I am a tennis instructor. What do you think this indicates?? Thanks Doctor: These are signs of varicose veins and are due to your long standing job. If its painful and causing swelling or in some cases ulcers they need treatment consult a general surgeon at the earliest.
