I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have pain and swelling in right leg with small clot in leg vein. You also have bleeding under skin. So it suggest some coagulation abnormalities.
You should go for coagulation profile ( bleeding time, clotting time, prothrombin time and activated partial thrombin time).
This will give you exact idea about cause.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
