?????????: I can think of no STD where the germ would survive in such a location in dried blood, much less be spread to others. Hepatitis B is a sturdy germ that could survive in dried blood but would need to be introduced inside the skin ( like by needle or wound) for it to infect anyone.

I have been having pain in my leg for a long time. It hurts so much that it's hard to walk. It hurts while I'm resting too. There's no redness or warmth but I do have a history of blood clots. I don't want to go to the ER if it's nothing.
How much should blood pressure increase when simply walking? Not a brisk walk but a normal pace. My blood pressure increased was 140/90 - 156/90-95. Resting bp is 118/79.
