Pain In Upper Thigh, Twisted Ankle, Weird Sensation With Heart, Got Head Hit On Cement. Possibility Of Clot?
Hello, I am a 38 year old female. About 3 weeks ago, I had experienced pain in my upper thigh on my right leg. Then about 2 weeks ago I fell down and hit my head on the cement. I had gotten stitches at the ER. My ankle was also twisted and is now finally healing. I then had experienced a weird sensation with my heart when I laid down at night to rest. I was worried that I might be experiencing some type of clot. It feels like when I breathe that the air is filling my right lung but my left lung does not feel like it is filling completely with air.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain in the upper thigh after the fall is likely to be a muscular pain or due to a soft tissue injury. This is not suggestive of a blood clot in the veins. Rest and hot fomentation should help you.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
