What Are The Symptoms Of Having Blood Clot In Leg?

Hi, I would like to know what are the signs of a blood clot in your leg. I have a sit down job, and my legs are bent around 45 minutes to an hour before I may get a break to stand and stretch. Lately I have been experiencing a slight cramping type sensation behind my right knee and slightly down the back of my calf. I would also feel slight tightening pain on the side of my right knee, and after some very strenuous stretching it would go away, only to come back when I am at work.

Hello,

Blood clot in legs causes pain and swelling in legs. I suggest you to get doppler ultrasound of legs to look for evidence of clot in legs.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
