What Causes Pain In The Left Calf Muscle?
Question: Im getting leg calf pain on left leg , please help me for cure. Im in second trimester.
Brief Answer:
diet and exercise after doppler ultrasound
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Although the history you send to us in very short but as you are pregnant and have pain in one calf only, we have to rule out DVT (DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS). This is common in pregnancy - in this condition - blood vessels in calf get blocked due to blood clot and this cause pain. This condition is frequently diagnosed by Doppler ultrasound. If it is negative then frequent liquids and some leg exercises from any physiotherapist will help.
Hope this will help. If have any further queries, please do not hesitate...
Take care
