Asked for male, 22 years old from Noida

Hi, I am a 23 year old male. 4 years ago, I had a football injury which I initially ignored. Since then, I have done my left foot mri two times and no orthopedic deformity was detected. Then I went for a doppler test and there I was diagnosed with superficial vein thrombosis. I searched and found out that these clots in superficial veins gets healed in 3 or 4 weeks. But I am suffering from it from the last 4 years? I am confused and in stress whether this is even possible. I overthink about the possibilities of dvt. Pls any vascular surgeon help me. I am a fit guy. I can not wear socks and at night, it just burns. I am applying thrombophob gel on the affected part. Please anyone help me.

Hello lybrate-user, superficial venous thrombosis is as such itself is not very dangerous, the important point is to find out why it has happened. A injury 4 years back (probably not that major as you could ignore that) is not very convincing as the primary cause. For burning at night, you can have methycobal 1500 mcg intramuscular injection.

My uncle has a dvt (since oct 2022) in his right leg near the knee. He is currently being treated with warfarin. He started developing a boil like sore on the area where the dct is located, it has opened up now and it's oozing yellow fluid. A new sore has started just above that. The area surrounding it, is very red and inflamed and hard.

Asked for male, 42 years old from Bangalore

I am male, 42. I have had dvt three times, when I was 27, 28 and then 34. Doctors could not find a reason for this after all the required blood tests were done and concluded that my blood has a tendency to clot. However I recently read that hormone replacement can cause dvt and that reminded me that I had taken testosterone (sustanon 250) around 4-5 doses when I was around 20 years old as I had low hormone levels according to the blood tests. Sine this was done several years back I did not consider/mention this. Is it possible that these injections could have caused dvt after around 6-7 years? And then again after 14 years when I was 34?

Asked for male, 20 years old from Noida

I had superficial blood clot due to a drip in my right hand for dengue treatment which resolved after using thrombophob ointment, but after 2 weeks, a blood clot in inner face of my left leg appeared (below the knee), I have very mild pain in my calf too for two days. Is this deep vein thrombosis or superficial thrombosis? Pain is negligible for two days and swelling is only at a point on inner face of leg not on calf.

General Surgeon•Howrah

If the doppler study is normal and not showing any thrombosis (clot), it may be an age-related pain.
There may not be any relation between the covid vaccine and the leg pain because having pain after 40 days of the vaccination is unlikely due to adverse effect of the vaccination.
Consult an orthopedician for better assessment and she may have to do physiotherapy.

Asked for female, 28 years old from Bhopal

General Surgeon•Srinagar

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.

General Physician•Delhi

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
The most common causes of pleural effusion are congestive heart failure, cancer, pneumonia, and pulmonary embolism. Pleural fluid puncture (pleural tap) enables the differentiation of a transudate from an exudate, which remains, at present, the foundation of the further diagnostic work-up.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

I cannot prescribe about medicines as I am a physiotherapist however you can do exercises for the upper limb ie. Elbow and finger. In general during the recovery phase the upper limbs will automatically go for tightness / spasticity.
