Thank You Doctor. My Father Is 78, A Life-long Smoker

Thank you doctor. My father is 78, a life-long smoker who has workded his entire life and only retired two weeks ago. A couple of days ago, his foot and ankle swelled significantly, turned red and purple, warm to touch, and is extremely painful. He can barely walk. I'm worried it's a DVT or some blood clot.
