A member asked:
Leg blood clot from sinus surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: A period of immobility and surgery can contribute to risk of a blood clot. Especially if surgery was more than an hour. Also if no sequential compression devices on legs during surgery. If curious, call your doc.
