A member asked:

Tender in back, upper thigh. looks like a small bruise, a little red. i've also been nauseous on and off lately. my walking is fine. clot or no?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Blood clot: Nausea does not mean you have a blood clot. The bruise or bump could be just that. Usually blood clots are in the lower leg, below the knee. Risk factors are family history, recent surgery, long plane trips or being sedentary for many hours, birth control pills and smoking.
