What Do Calf Pain With Spots From Ankle To Knee Indicate?
About two weeks ago I was standing for an extended period of time. My calf seemed to have popped and could not walk on it. A couple days later pain went away. Then after a couple week the pain came back and I had a tough walking. Just yesterday I have developed these spots on my legs from my ankle to my knee. They look like small subcutaneous bruises.

dear sir / madam
i would like to know does your occupation need prolonged standing,
based on your description possibilities could be varicosities in lower limb veins
deep vein thrombosis for which examination of your calf for tenderness and movements of ankle are to be tested
or it could be muscle strain for which rest and ice fomentation analgesics would suffice.
