Possible: If you have risk factors for DVT (cancer,hormone replacement,prolonged immobilization or recent long airplane travel) certainly consider repeating it or have d-dimer blood test.

Repeat US: The US may be repeated to include the area where you are having pain. Watch for any signs of respiratory distress. If this occurs, please see the Emergency Department right away.
