What Causes Leg Cramps And Redness In Leg With Fever?

My 15 year old son had his tonsils out on March 3 - had a checkup on March 11 and his throat was white - was told he may need another 7 to 10 days to recoup. For the past day and a half he has had severe leg cramps with redness in one leg at the back. He is running a fever - 38.6. Should I worry about clots - should I take him to the hospital?
