What Causes Sore Lump And Bruise On Calf?

Where is this lump located?
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this lump and the pains that you have reported. I will like to know the exact location of this lump. Beside being sore, does it feel warm to touch? what is the color of the skin over this lump?
from the information you have provided, this could be a blood collection in the muscles following a muscle tear seen the level of intense exercising this week. For now, I recommend monitoring and some pain medications like Tylenol and ibuprofen as recommended by your pharmacist. Also, report any changes promptly for further evaluation and management.
I hope this helps. I wish you well and thank you so much for using our services. Feel free to ask for more information and clarification if need be.


Probably a hematoma.
Detailed Answer:
This is probably a hematoma. Bluish discoloration is suggestive of blood in muscles.
Monitor, take pain medications and stay well hydrated. Exercising is great, but make sure it is friendly and tailored to your abilities.
I wish you well. Feel free to ask for clarifications should the need be.
