So ive been having leg pain the past few days, and ive had a ultrasound of my leg but im still worried it could be a clot. Im young and normally healthy idk if its more going on or just my Anxiety. IM SUPER WORRIED.

Hi. A few years ago I had a clot in my leg. The leg swelled up to 2 or 3 times its usual size and there was pain in the calf. The ultrasound picked it up in about 2 minutes flat. I would say hat if you had an ultrasound then it is very unlikely you have a clot. Those machines and the people who use them are extremely good at whet they do. I would put that thought out of your head.

There may be some other reason for the leg pain, and also depends on which part of the leg the pain is in. Could be something like a twisted muscle for example, pain can also be as a result of something wrong in your back, or ligament pain - so may reasons. Anxiety is also a possibility. Try to rest the leg for a couple of days and see if the pain goes away - or if painkillers help. If it gets really unbearable then of course you need to seek medical attention.
