hi,

thank you for providing the brief history.

As post stunt there is pain and swelling of the leg and feet I think a thorough clinical examination of the limbs and heart is required.

Also, post stent due to better venous blood flow is present compared to past there needs an attention to the cardiac and venous system again.

As the pain and swelling shouldn't happen post the stent but if it has occured than a thorough exmaination will help understand if any other clot is compromising the blood flow.
