Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I ve been having shin pain for the past few weeks. I ve had a DVT in the past, but I just had an ultrasound a few days ago on the same leg and it was clear. What could it be? I haven t been overexerting myself or anything like that lately. It hurts more when I m not standing/walking on it.
Hello and welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Do you have shortness of breathing/chest discomfort? Do you see any prominence of vein?
I suggest you to take T.Paracetamol TDS (thrice daily) for 3 days. If symptoms persist, I suggest you to do USG DOPPLER and consult a surgeon. Contact us with any further reports.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
