Hi it looks like a birthmark back of my leg above my knee, if you look closely there's bruising plus where the blood vessels have broke. My legs ache daily feel like i need a good massage. the pain is going down to my calve and finding it's playing up while walking. the doc said its not a cyst but is flared up. im worried now has the pain is going down my leg and it's still flared slightly warm. also i'm a smoker.

please help

Pain in calf, slightly warm to the touch plus you are a smoker...

Sounds like you might be experiencing a potential blood clot...smoking increases that chance plus if you are or have been on birth control.

Seek a second opinion...
