A member asked:
Tore my left acl 7 days ago. 3 days ago have been experiencing constant muscle spasms and pain in left calf. shoukd i be worried about a dvt?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a MD: Some of the spasms can be due to tightening of tendons like the hamstrings. However, you should be evaluated by a MD to make sure and they can also examine for a DVT before starting Physical therapy if surgery is not being pursued. ACL tears should be followed closely by medical professionals in the field of Orthopedics or Sports Medicine.
