E improper blood circulation, clotting etc. Latest happened in September 2018, n turned out to be DVT, thinners, anticoagulant are on going, since swelling in limb wasn't mitigating so went for sonography, turned out to be blockage in one of the IVC portion (blockage of 8.7 to 9) and have been told for venoplasty.
