How To Cure Pain Halfway Up The Knee From Knee Due To Thrombophlebitis?

I hope ypucan help me. I am sure I have superficial thrombophlebitis now for 8 days and redness pain, and swelling are almost gone butnow it is as if the pain has moved to a small area to the side and just behind my knee and halfway up the inner thigh. There is no real pain as before but the vein that runs along the inner thigh feels tender. I am very concerned because I am without medical insurance and I have not been able to work since january . Also I exercized regularly riding my bicycle to work through these years but been far less mobile in february. Does this sound like I have developed deep vein thrombosis .
