[|Human|] Hello I am 17 weeks pregnant and a few days ago a small lump appeared on my left shin. It feels like a bruise but doesnt look like one and I havent banged my leg. Today it looks a bit pink. One has also appeared on my right shin today. I went to the doctor and he said they are probably insect bites but Im not convinced. Can you help.
[|AI|]  Hello! Thank you for the query. As you are pregnant, most probable reason of such lump is varicose vein. Please note that during pregnancy uterine compresses large veins and impedes blood flow in leg veins. This can cause varicose veins in legs and hemorrhoids. In most cases it does not need any medical attention, however sometimes thrombosis can appear inside. Please have it under observation. In case of any pain, hardness consult your doctor once again. Hope this will help. Regards.
