Hello,
Thank you so much for your help in advance, it means a lot to me, because I cannot afford health insurance right now.
For the past 2 years, I have been suffering from discomfort in my right leg. I am 25 year old male, in general good health. No blood disorders in the past. I have used drugs recreation-ally, drank alcohol, smoked on and off for 6 years and have mild anxiety. I also shake my right leg a lot, but I never had this discomfort up until last 2 years.
I do have good blood work always, no high blood pressure etc.
My job consists of sitting all day in office chair (I am self employed but barely surviving). A little bit higher than my right knee, where the chair padding ends, there is a spot, that always hurt. Especially if I am moving. The pain never goes away, it is with me 24/7, nothing makes it better. I can rate it on a scale from 1-10, it would be a 3-4, but it never fades and I am not sure what it is. There is no swelling from what I can feel/see. My hair growth in that area is good.
About a year ago, when I had health insurance, I showed it to my doctor and he shrugged it off with "oh no swelling no pain while walking...no worries" no blood clot.
How can I make sure it isn't a blood clot for free??? I am very worried that it can travel and I can die.
Please help me.
