Hi,

This kind of feeling is quite normal after bruising in the thigh due to stenting. Some blood which has oozed out may irritate some nerves causing a cramp like feeling. It should go away in a few days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Gopal Goel,
Orthopedic Surgeon
