Had angioplasty for plaque build up in left thigh five weeks ago. Infection set in, went back into hospital to have doctor clean wound area and now have aa wound vac. Just this week after coming out of hospital my left thigh is swollen as well as my calf and foot. Could there be a clot or am I on my feet too much during the day?
