Seek Care: Patients with leg pain that is severe, develops suddenly, begins a few days after a c-section, produces progressive numbness, decreased muscle strength or loss of bowel or bladder control, or occurs in conjunction with leg swelling, purple or red legs or breathing problems should seek emergency medical care. See your doc asap to be safe. Take care.
