A member asked:
I have a twitch in the femoral artery area of the groin. sometimes it shoots down my leg. only seem to notice it when laying down.i have had a few angiograms and a star closure clip in that area. could this be from the surgeries or something new? what do
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe the closure : I would call the doctor that placed the star closure device, and go in for a visit. It could be related. Also ask about checking for a hernia. Hope this helps!
