Bloood clot in leg HELP
I had a blood clot last postpartum in my leg. I’m currently 2weeks pp this pregnancy experiencing similar pains in the same leg in my inside thigh near my pubic area so inner leg. I’ve tried paracetamol and nothing is touching the nigging discomfort it’s weekend. If I’m 14 day pp can I still contact triage as no gp open the weekend. I am on blood thinners needles 5000iui but I’ve missed 1 week before giving birth and 3 days postpartum. It’s just a minimum dose. When I had the Dvt I was dosed at 15000 daily
Will triage see you 2 weeks after a baby or are you completely discharged

My triage is for 6 weeks after birth. I would ring them regardless and they will advise where to go if they can’t help
@Denise how did you know you had a clot?
@Denise see last time it was behind my knee I had the pain and a red warm area. This time no red or swelling or warmth just this constant throbbing pain in the groin area and it runs down my leg kinda to where the old clot was
@Denise I have PE too, but my symptoms were never extreme except heart palpitations. I’m told to inject myself until 6 weeks over, just wondering, how do I know I’m safe to stop? Like the doctors didn’t even check on me, is it on me to request a scan?

I was told you have 28 days after birth that you can still visit triage x
