anyone ever have blood clots where a lumpy thing shows up on your leg?

just got it this morning. my leg has a rash on it too, I've been putting antibiotic stuff on it, I have an appt tom with a vascular doctor, just wondered why it showed up so lumpy like that and water seems to be on it too, I don't like going to er's so I'm just going to wait till tom and see my doctor then, this is the first time that's ever happened. hopefully, it wont get worse before then, just wondered what they'll do tom and if I'm going to get stuck with surgery or end up in the hospital or ER. anyone ever have this happen? and what was it?

If your leg is seeping (looks like you have water on the skin), you need to go to the ER now. Could be a blood clot, could be cellulitis, could be an infection going septic. Too many things for anyone to diagnose without seeing it. But, it isn't something you should put off until tomorrow. Besides, if what's going on is bad enough, at your appointment tomorrow, they may send you directly to the ER anyway.
@Cyclist Yes, it is.

She just responded to my post, so I hope @pearllederman is on and reading this right now.

You should go today. A blood clot can move and find its way to your heart. Do not Rub that lump!

if that clot breaks loose it could cause a stroke or heart ussue/attack
