Hi there

I would advise you see a doctor asap - it could be an infection which needs treatment.

Could be lots of things-have you been travelling recently? if it is in the calf and is hot and painful it could be a DVT-you MUST get it looked at to rule that out at least! Otherwise, think about what you have been doing recently, and see if you can pinpoint when it began. Good luck!
