    I’m Panicking as my left leg hurts below knee . I didn’t drive for two weeks so wondering if it’s that where I started driving again Tuesday . Has anyone else had leg pain. I had a injection after surgery to thin blood and had those tights on all night that pumped
    Up every ten seconds. I’m 16 days post op. So scared of blood clots x

    Is t the front or back? Usually the back of the calf with blood clots and the skin would be warm/red and firm. Always worth calling the nurse if you’re concerned though xx

    If it’s the front and you drive a manual I would have thought you’ve just strained the muscle from not driving and then using the clutch again! Xx

    It is the back of my leg. I kind of just ache all over. I’ve took pain killers . My leg isn’t swollen or red. I hate hospitals so much so won’t rush but if the pain comes back worse I will go and get checked. My boobs hurt so much still and my left is still swollen. Was hoping it would go down. Just want them to Match. I suffer with anxiety and any little thing is unsettling me. X

    Oh bless you, if you’re an anxious person (like me) I would always call the nurse just to put your mind at rest! Try and take it easy and give your body a chance to heal, after all you’ve had surgery, it’s a big thing for your body to deal with! Hope you feel better soon Hun xxx

    Hi , I didn’t call the doc. It has eased a lot. I think it’s the driving. I think where I didn’t drive for so long and have now gone back to sch runs and running around after the kids again I think it’s the muscle. I said to my Mum if it was still bad today I would call Doctor. Thankfully it’s a lot easier. Thank you for asking xx
