Hi i have pain in my left calf that started this morning and persisted all day,  exacerbated by ambulation  and palpitation. It is almost unnoticeable when i am still.  No overt changes to the calf muscles, there is slight discoloration (ie some blue dots) but that may just be my vericose veins.  Please advise!
Hi, In my opinion I don't want you to usually worry varicose vein or deep vein thrombosis happens in lower limbs and rarely in upper limb. The blue dots are only bruises from your injury or contusion the palpitation feeling you have may subside within first 3 to 4 days. For now, I suggest icing it for the first 48 hours, massages with topical gels, painkillers like ibuprofen tab when needed and use an arm sling will be helpful. If pain persist ask your physician for Doppler ultrasound on your left upper limb venous system to exclude varicose veins and x-rays, MRI, if needed for proper management. Please consider positive feedback if the information was helpful. Hope the above information helps you, Any further clarifications feel free to ask.
