Suggest Me Medication For Blood Clot After Insertion Of IV?
I recently had an IV that was put in on my right arm in a vein near the inside of my elbow. Now, I have a painful spot below where the IV was put in that is very painful. Somebody suggested that this might be a blood clot? What do I do for this? I have started taking Ibprofen, and I want to know if this is something I need to worry about????

You might developed thromhophlebitis.. Nothing to worry about the blood clot. You can apply an heparin ointment > THROMBOPHOBE OINTN.. This will resolve your blood clot and make you pain free in few days..
