What Causes Cramps In Left Leg And Redness Behind Leg?

I m 35 weeks pregnant and lately I ve been having a lot of leg cramps in my left leg and would be left sore for days. I just noticed today on the back of my leg there is reddish discoloring from top to bottom and when I press on it it turns white. There s no itchiness. Could this be a blood clot?

Hello,

I don't think this is a blood clot because it is deeper and it cannot be visible. This is a problem of superficial vessels veins.Just do a Doppler ultrasound of the leg.Please discuss with your doctor for this

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
