I do not think that it is related to blood clot. It can be due to nerve compression at your back, so when you stand for some time because of nerve compression you feel like sitting. You will also notice that when you bend forward your pain is less. My advice to you is to contact a neurologist and get your MRI of lumbar spine. This will give us clear picture about your spine. If it shows nerve compression you can start taking medication like Gabapentin, Methylcobalamine .
