Postdvt leg much thinner & painful than other leg (which gets edema). why thinner? thank you.

Confused as you are.: So the leg with the clot in it is smaller than the other leg which does not have a clot? Or did you have a procedure for this clot, like a clot extraction? Are you currently on a blood thinner?
