    i just found that there is a small bulge on my left calf surface vein. it's about 1 cm in diameter. doesn't hurt, itch, what so ever. even if i press it, i don't feel anything. i just took multiple flights that combined for 17 hours in the air. that might have caused it. so i did some research, seems not to be a big problem. anyone else have similar experience? i'm not sure how to deal with local hospitals here. thanks.

    I hope you don't have calf cancer.

    Actually, I didn't realize that you took some long airplane trips. Looks like you have something called Deep Vein Thrombosis. There is alot of info on it on the web. I remember hearing it could be trouble, if the clot moves to other parts of your body.

    Thank you, Dr. Brightside.

    Don't listen to him. What you REALLY have is an aneurysm. If the aneurysm bursts, you'll most likely bleed to death in about five minutes.

    Good luck!

    Are you sure it isn't a nest of millions of baby spiders? They usually don't hurt when you poke at them.......at least not until they are old enough to bite.

    usually, a poke with a sterile sewing needle will solve the problem.

    See if it can be varicose veins...

    keep flexing until it pops or makes it way to your heart where it will be broken apart.

    If that's the case, I fear we'll never read another post from yuantian. :(

    Sounds like jock itch mixed in with a vagina wart. You're weird.

    Um, he's sick. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with a girl who saw yuantian with a small bulge on his left calf surface vein at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

    :D guys, that was mean :(

    like someone said above, i think it's just some varicose veins, whatever that's spelled. it's tiny, i was just paranoid. but i went to a hospital in china, was cool. i didn't bring any ID, just went in, registered, and the doctor checked it out. was an intereting experience.
