Will Blood Clots In Knee Cause Pain ?
My right leg behind my knee, top of calf is sore and has been for a few months. Maintaining soreness for longer periods. occassionally hot to the touch. Strength in the knee is waning. Elevating helps a bit. Seems a touch swollen. Blood clots run in my family.

Soreness for a long time in leg can indicate for deep vein problems.
If it is sore now there can be inflammation.
You should refer to a doctor to perform duplex ultrasound of your lower extremities' vessels.
Wish you good health.
