A doctor has provided 1 answer

Phlebitis : This is not a safe arrangement for you. Being young is probably save you thus far but will not forever. This condition is pre phlebitis . This can be very dangerous if you form clots in the lower legs.You need some type of an arrangement where you are standing /walking a few minutes every hour. A physical therapist should be able to provide a program for you. However still see your family doctor
