Calf Pain

You can also experience calf pain when you have a blood clot in your leg. Like foot pain, this symptom can be mistaken for a typical muscle cramp or muscle strain. Unfortunately, calf pain caused by a blood clot in the leg can be dangerous if misdiagnosed and left untreated.

Calf pain caused by deep vein thrombosis is noticeable when a person is bending, walking or flexing their foot upwards. If you experience this symptom alongside other deep vein thrombosis symptoms mentioned in this list, visit a physician immediately.
