A member asked:
Could i still have blood clot ultrasound negative still swollen calf and turning brownish red in color?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
yes - could repeat : Yes - the ultrasound could have missed the clot. The ultrasound exam is very dependent on the technician performing the study. If your doctor still thinks that a clot is likely then have the ultrasound repeated.
