A member asked:

Pain right thigh-calf five days now in other calf too.not red if swollen only a lil.ultrasound neg for bloodclots. feels better when raised ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thigh discomfort: Leg discomfort relieved by elevating the leg could be due to congestion in the internal veins of the leg caused by insufficiency of the valves. Another possibility is nerve discomfort from a nerve impingement or disc problem in the spine or nerve root. I recommend a consultation with a vascular surgeon if symptoms persist; if this is not fruitful,then consult an orthopedic surgeon.
