Very mild pain, several bruises on left calf, could it be serious?

Question

I'm 31 and I've been having this really mild pain (not really painful, just "something" I didn't think was worth an appointment to the doctor) on my left leg for the last year more or less and now several purplish bruises have appeared for no apparent reason on the lower calf area. They don't hurt or anything. Should I go to the doctor immediately or just wait and see what happens? Do you have any idea what this might be? Thanks.

Answer 1

question 1 do you stand up a lot for your job--(e.g. hairdresser) if so then this is concerning because it could be a DVT Deep Vein Thrombosis which could break off and go to your heart=heart attack or lungs=respiratory failure so my advice is to go to the ER and get it checked out now! i work in the ER and my advice is go now! because these get real severe real fast!
