What are the symptoms of a blood clot in your legs?

by Symptom Advice on March 29, 2011

I just started birth control and I have been having leg pains, its in both legs, but at times it hurts really bad for like 2-3 minutes. I have started running agian and I hadnt stretched either, but im still worried, could I have a blood clot. please help!!! Im 19 and Im healthy never had any other problems, but im still scared!!!

i had the same problem too, your chances of getting a blood clot increases especially if you smoke….but anyways you'll feel pain, swelling, discoloration since its cutting circulation, and sometimes numbness. My pain lasted about 2 weeks, then it went away. but I would of gone to the doc, just never had the time to do so, but if you do it never hurts to find out and be safe…

When i had my first clot i was 18, very active and the only symptom i had was a cramp in my leg that lasted longer then a week, it became so painful that i was walking with a limp. I had an ultrasound done and they found out that a clot had formed.

clots don't run in the family and all they could put it down to was the contraceptive tablet. Ask your doctor

Good luck

Call your doctor and tell her whats going on. Sometimes you can see a blood clot and sometimes you can't, but I would call my doctor and tell them what's going on. Don't be scared, it could be just your muscles.
