Thank you
For sure this is not related to the food you have eaten recently. Such bump on the leg is most likely a varicose vein. Due to some blood clot presence in it, it may get red, hard and painful. It is also possible that this lump is a kind of local infection. The best way to find out what it is, is to have an ultrasound of this area.
Hope this will help. Regards.
