A member asked:
1 mo post midfoot fusion surgery and sudden tightness across foot like there is a tourniquet tied across foot-should i worry about clot? have factor v
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fusion: Factor v is involved in hypercoagulability . Are toes cold or blue ? Loss of sensation anywhere ? Are you walking on the fusion yet ? These questions need to be answered , but a visit to the surgeon is certainly warranted. Good luck !
