What Causes Painful Lumps On The Legs After Taking Cipro?

I took cipro about two months ago. with in a half hour I felt two large knots move down my left calf.Since then it has gone from bad to worse and effects my whole left leg. at times foot & calf numb. I had cortisone pain shot in back as 4 doctors think it is the back causing it. No relief yet. I feel it is from Cipro. what to do?. how can I be sure.? I can hardly walk & so PAINFUL, I am 82 years old. Up to now I was fine. in very good health. was taking cipro for bladder infection took just one pill. because of reaction.Can you direct me or help. otherwise I will ba an invalid. Sorry can not afford to get answer. sorry low on $$$
