Suggest Treatment For Blood Clot In The Walls Of Leg

Hello, my son was told he has a chronic blood clot ine the walls of his leg, how serious is his condition? Blood clots run in the family, I ve had pulmonary emblelism twice. He was told it s really nothing they can do and to come back in about a month. What is the chance pieces can break off and move to the heart or lungs?

HI
Well come to HCM
Actually complete medical history is important like where the clot is situated in vascular region (vein) what is clinical complaint, how much the symptoms are serious or severe, what the angiography reports Doppler study says (If ever done) according to all of these line of treatment suggested, without this nothing can be said, if this is not sever enough then this could be managed medically, hope this information helps, take care.
