It is unlikely that she might be having a dvt as she is on blood thinners for a long time. Without seeing the pictures, it is difficult to tell what exactly is it. Send pictures of the clotted as well as the surrounding area, I will guide you for the further course of action needed.

Dvt is intravascular … that is inside the blood vessels. With blood thinner drugs and regular dosage it is very uncommon to have dvt. You can get the colour doppler to rule out the same by visiting nearest medical facility and consult the doctor.

Hello it is unlikely that your mom has dvt as she already on blood thinners. It can be a hematoma or ecchymosis due to her blood thinners. Stop the blood thinners and do a complete blood count and a coagulogram. You can share the pics in my inbox so that I can help in a better way. Regards.
