Hello doctor. I have deep vein thrombosis of lower extremities treated for 8 days in 1 hospital. After going home for outpatient treatment, my legs are no longer swollen, but for a few days I have pain in my calf like a cramp and can't walk. Please examine me and advise me. Calf pain after treatment for deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities is worrisome? Thank you doctor.
