Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Blood clots can develop in legs immobilization. Surgery is one of the cause of immobilization. Blood clots are legs are characterized by pain especially on moving or raising the leg. If you are also experiencing similar symptoms then probably you have developed a clot in the legs. You need to consult your surgeon for clinical assessment and investigations like Doppler ultrasound of the leg. In case any clot is detected, appropriate steps can be taken to clear the clot. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
