Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My boyfriend is a roofer and has a hard bump in lower leg but only when he flexes. it is on both sides and feels like it is just muscle.. he is not worried but I am as I have anxiety. It is painless and can only be felt or seen when he bends his legs and flexes his calf muscles? Any reassurance?
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to muscle knots. They are small, bump-like areas of muscle that can be painful to the touch. I suggest using an anti inflammatory medication such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation. I also suggest using anti inflammatory cream such as Voltaren gel for local application .
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi General &Family Physician
