Deep Throbbing Pain In Right Calf With Varicose Veins
I have a deep throbbing pain in my right calf. I am a 42 year old woman who (i know i know) smokes. Pain started a couple of hours ago. I have varicose veins . I am now raising my legs (higher than my heart ) and I took to aspirins to hopefully thin my blood ...although hopefully will be effective for pain as well. Should I do anything else? Also when should I call a doctor .
