Question 2

how to tell if it is deep vein thrombosis or calf muscular pain and tendonitis?

Accepted Answer

That is a good: Question as sometimes it is clinically difficult for us too the physicians. To be sure one can do a blood test called d-dimer test but the best and with immediate results is an ultrasound duplex test. That will immediately show if clot is there or not. Trauma can cause clots and muscle pain. So, for a sudden calf pain one has to see a doctor asap as a clot may need specific attention.

Tendon tear.: The MRI will help with isolating the problem, but in the meantime, it might be prudent to avoid using the foot in the same manner you are accustomed to.
