Ankle pain left foot. just got off 30 hour train ride. never sat for more than 4 hours, but also took bus trips last week. should i be worried dvt?

Maybe: Ankle pain by itself could be anything, and swelling would be more worrisome. The problem with DVT however is that the physical signs and symptoms are unreliable. The only way to know is to get a doppler ultrasound of the leg. If you're concerned, it would be worth getting the study. Hope this helps !
