okay this afternoon, the top of my left calf felt strange. Kinda like if u have strained a muscle but I hadn't and it was only on one part of my calf.

Over the afternoon the symptoms was barely noticeable but on the way home from work it was there again & now although its not worse it is still there and now the back of my left thigh is tight.

Is it just muscle or DVT/bloodclot causing this? :unsure:

Sounds like muscle.

There's been many times when I've pulled a muscle in my leg and thought it was a clot. But each time I was told by a doc that if I had a clot the leg would be discoloured, hot, swollen and almost impossible to walk on.

If your symptoms get worse and sound like the ones I've mentioned then go to the doctor/hospital. But from the sounds of it I doubt it will come to that.
