Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Dear Sir/Madam,
Thanks for seeking help on your issue; I have gone through your symptoms, and in my opinion, the pain and the discoloration u are mentioning are not to be taken lightly, as the pain may be due to arthritis of any type but the discoloration is a vascular event and you need to watch for DVT. Kindly consult an orthopaedic doctor early.
I hope I have been able to provide you with a satisfactory solution, if you want to clear any doubts about my opinion, feel free to contact.
Special note- Any medication prescribed needs to be taken after consultation with your personal doctor only.
Thanks
Dr. Narender Saini
