Best to remove doubt: Fortunately, blood clots after foot surgery, are not all that common. Recognizing one, unfortunately, is not always easy. The symptoms can range from a weird pain in the back of your leg to a full blown classic description. This would include swelling, color and temperature changes as well as pain. Since the danger of clots is so serious, it is best to have the leg evaluated and possibly tested.
