calf pain

[Littlechopsxo]

hey guys sorry again!!! I get CONSTANT right leg pain it’s not always situated in the calf but most of the time it is, it can radiate to my foot or up my leg. One of my biggest anxiety triggers is blood clots! I’ve phoned the dr multiple times about this and they get me to check for lumps, heat, swelling ect which I never ever have, just the horrible cramp, it’s on and off, not constant. I can’t enjoy myself because I’m constantly worried about this pain. I’m not sure if it’s because I think about the pain it’s there? This sounds so odd but I can’t remember if I have the pain and then panic which makes it work OR if the pain comes on when I’m stressed and thinking about it 🥺 really struggling tonight, at my mums so in a different city. She’s sleeping for work and my partner is also sleeping. I just want to relax and enjoy my time back home with my family xxxx

I am not a doctor, but it does not sound serious to me. My first thought was a blood clot, but your doctor has ruled that out. Do you think it could be a muscle cramp? Does stretching your calf help - maybe try that.

can they send you to a vascular lab for an ultrasound? It would rule out blood clots. That might be helpful. Good luck to you. M-

they seem to think nothing is wrong when I call? They won’t offer me an appointment face to face ☹️

You need to go to an orthopedist, vascular, or pain management doctor.

I will have to really push my Dr as they just keep telling me that because there is no swelling/redness/heat and the pain is on and off that it doesn’t fit the symptoms of a blood clot I’m so glad you’re okay now 🤍🤍 xx
