A member asked:
Had ankle surgery two weeks ago. opposite heel was red and tender when i woke up this morning. could it be blood clot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood clot.: While Orthopedic surgery is a risk factor for blood clot formation, I wouldn't expect only your heel to be manifesting symptoms of such. That being said, you should be checked out by a local doctor to be sure.
