Suggest Treatment For Superficial Thrombophlebitis On Thighs
Hi today I was diagnosed with superficial thrombophlebitis in the back of the left thigh. I was given compression socks and anti inflammatory cream. There is a blood clotting disorder which claimed my mothers life due to Massive PE at the age of 41 and her youngest brother also is a survivor of massive PE. He is still undergoing tests. It has been confirmed that he does have a disorder but no label yet as this may take some years. Should I go to the emergency Dept?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if you do have a family history of blood disorders then it is advisable to rule out the possibility of this in your case too, and if found positive then this need to be managed accordingly, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
