Concerned: You state that you have a blood clot in your knee and shin. How did you come to this conclusion? If you are correct, your concern should be at the blood clot either gets bigger or breaks off. It could move into the lung and cause difficulty breathing or worse. Have you been coughing up any blood? Are you having any difficulty breathing? Please get this examined by a doctor, simple ultrasound and bloodwork can determine the proper treatment
