Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Physical examination is often not helpful / symptoms may be misleading
Doppler study of the veins of the leg will show their status...
A haematologist can investigate further for unusual causes of clotting..

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
