What Causes Pain In Left Ankle,left Leg,hands And Head?

I have daily swelling in my left ankle, left leg (around my knee) and my hands. I keep having a dull numbing pain in my left arm. I get a sharp shooting pain on the right side of my head that last only a couple seconds. I was diagnosed with a DVT in my left leg in April 2011 and told three months later it was "gone." What could be causing my problems?

DVT problems usually do not cause this problem after it has resolved. But after the DVT many times small veins( blood vessels carrying blood back to heart) are damaged. This problem may be because of that. Also these problems may be a part of disc herniation at lower vack level and cervical spondylosis
