Brief Answer:
Calf muscles spasm.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.

Thank you for the query.

The most probable reason of such symptoms is a calf muscles spasm due to Magnesium and Potasium deficiency. The spasm can be very strong and lead to veins rupture and bruising.
Potasium and Magnesium supplementation is the best way to fix the problem. Bruises can be present for few weeks.
For the pain managment, Diclophenac should be helpful.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
