feeling of lump moving in left leg

F age 60 i have a feeling of lump moving in back of left leg. i regularly have feelings of great anxiety about my health and fear of dying so anything unusual like this I assume the worst case. For a few weeks I have had a series of small lumps that I can feel just below my knee on the inside of my calf. I have been applying vitamin E oil here most days. today it feels more like something bigger has moved to the back of my leg.

I am worried it might be dangerous but hospital here is very busy and full due to Covid. Please suggest a course of remedies for me.

I had a lot of physical domestic violence in my family life As a child. i used to have many nightmares. Now I have anxiety and depression as a daily issue for many years. not so much nightmares any more. Increasingly I don’t like being around people I don’t know as i fear they will say or do something that will trigger my anxiety. I really only feel safe with my son who lives not far away but is very busy. With my son I am very talkative and I worry about his health and well-being to. With other people I talk less.

I currently have many practical problems in my life that I don’t cope well with. I need to move house but my house is very messy and I am having trouble clearing up. I need to earn more money but I don’t feel well or stable enough to attend interviews or be available for a full day’s work.

I get very tired easily (usually at around 11am or 2pm) and it is almost as if I am like a clock quickly winding down and I must sit and rest and quite often I cannot keep myself awake. I like everything to be calm, I dislike sudden loud noises or unexpected physical touch. It feels like the world is very invasive and unkind and I am insignificant.

I don’t keep up well with regular chores like washing dishes and vacuuming the carpet however when I do them I like them to be very well done I like the dishes to shine! I think this is partly why I don’t do them usually, my standards are too high for myself! I can be very harsh in the way I speak to and about myself or think about myself.


I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s for more than 30 years. Only surgery is one C-section for My Son. I am overweight and my teeth are in a very bad state with just crumbling away. For exercise a walk about 30 minutes each day and do a little bit in the garden when I can. I feel like I retain water, for example I can’t create a fist properly any more it feels too congested in both hands but more often the left-hand.

I live alone my main companion was a dear little dog who died last September I still miss him very much and worry that I didn’t do enough to look after him because I was becoming more unwell myself at the same time. I feel like things are going wrong in many areas of my life and that I don’t have a good future ahead. I feel like people don’t want to help me but that many people exploit me. In general I want to stay still and quiet. I cannot bear the news, or even many TV shows where somehow there is always violence or cruelty arising And I have to immediately turn it off and then try to forget what I have seen or heard.

I don’t have very much appetite I have to deliberately plan to eat, I’m not very aware of developing hunger but suddenly I can feel ravenous if I haven’t kept up my food intake. I do like sweet foods but I don’t eat very big quantities of anything.

recently a new physical symptom is some froth on top of urine, urine colour varies, usually light yellow, sometimes light yellow-green sometimes a bit darker yellow. froth always white, never covers more than half the surface, usually less, no odour.

I hope that someone is available to help please. My biggest concern today is that feeling of something moving in my left leg as if maybe a clot Which could be dangerous.
