Not hives. They are under the skin and on top of the muscles. I'm thinking swollen lymph nodes. I was worried that they were deep vein thrombosis or something, but there are too many of them on both sides of body.

I agree with you, @A MyFibroTeam Member ....I definitely do not think the 'nodes' are calcium deposits. I would really like it if a doctor was interested in this subject.
They are very painful....the most painful ones are in one of my thighs. It is like they are 'on top' of the muscles.

If these bumps are calcium deposits, then why are they so painful and why to they come and go?

Hello, Iā€™m new here and was freshly diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I have noticed lumps/bumps on the front part of my legs. They are painful when touched.
