hi,
thankyou for providing the brief history of you.
As by reading the history of you I am able to understand that the pain is immense and needs attention. Now, since you have DVT , you need a thorough musculoskeletal assessment as to which we can guide for this exercises and make muscles stronger. Also, as exercise with combination of the medication will help improve the functional status and also will reduce the pain. Exercises will help improve the pharmacokinetics of the drug and good absorption as well. Also, exercises will help improve metabolism, immune system and also the vascular haemodynamics.
Based on this, you can undergo a physical therapy session for the Musculoskeletal assessment and also, the next is exercises which will improve the strength and improve the venous return.
in my clinical practice I have. seen patients with DVT and they all improve with physical therapy. 99% pain and other symptoms come down.
I expect the same from you.
Regards
