A member asked:
Had blood clot 7 months ago, on thinners for 3, every now and then like right now my leg is really sore and hard to walk on. no swelling tho. could it be a new clot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Local swelling and discomfort feeling rather than soreness and walking difficulty are the symptoms of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). You can do a therapeutic diagnosis by taking 2 buprofen OTC (200 mg x 2), q 6 hours, for 2 times. If pain goes away next day, DVT is ruled out.
