How To Get Rid Of Lump In My Left Leg Above The Toe?

I had a stent placed in my heart in March. A couple of days later I had very sharp pain go down my left leg to the top of my toes and have had an uncomfortable sensation in the area above my left toes ever since. Last week I don t recall hitting anything, but I felt a knot rising on my front left thigh. I immediately went to check it out and discovered a large bruise in the area with a lump in the middle. I put ice on it and it seemed to go down, but last night I again noticed the lump. The area in the middle of the bruise where the lump is is now almost back to flesh color. I take Plavix and aspirin daily. Is this lump cause for concern? I am 59 years old, 5 4 and weigh 139 lbs.

Hi,Dear,Good afternoon.Thanks for the query to my HCM online- clinic .I studied your query in-depth.I can understand your concerns.
-In my opinion the lump-above the toe-is just due to the overdosage of the aspirin and plavix ,which needs to be titrated under observation of your cardiologist.
-Advise-You need expert observation of your/or ER physician / ER Cardiologist, who would admit you for the controlled dosage by titration over a weeks time.
-Hope this would resolve your worry-some query.Wellcome again to HCM .Have a good day.
