Suggest Remedy For Swollen Knee And Leg Along With Calf Pain

Definitely not a blood clot!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this swelling and all the inconveniences this has caused you. Honestly, this has nothing to do with a blood clot. The symptoms are not the least suggestive of a clot. a clot would cause pain, swelling and redness. A clot that lasts this long would have caused signs of tissue death and you are not there. For the lumps to move in opposite direction is very atypical. Finally, deep venous thromboses cannot be seen moving on the surface of the leg.
My advice is to let go this thought of a possible clot. This is not the case. Your profession increases the risk of clots. Make sure you always stretch on flights so as to avoid blood stagnation and possibility of clot formation. STOP SMOKING!!! This would be a great way to reduce damaging your blood vessels, heart, lungs, etc. Healthy diet, regular exercise, fruits and vegetables would greatly improve your health. Also, avoid excess salts in food.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.


Would need more information about this!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
The symptoms clearly do not represent a clot. However, to establish the cause would require at least a proper examination and some testing that I cannot do online. I will suggest that you follow up with your doctor.
At this time, I recommend monitoring. I really think there is nothing alarming that needs immediate medical care. Monitoring would permit us to gather more information and certainly make the right decisions if there is something at a latter date. Right now, we would be everywhere and no where.
At your age, clots are not common either.
I wish you well and always available for further input if requested.
