Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Support Group
Deep-vein thrombosis, also known as deep-venous thrombosis or DVT, is the formation of a blood clot ("thrombus") in a deep vein. It can be caused by something preventing blood from circulating or clotting normally. Join the support group if you are coping with DVT and find others who are going through the same challenges.
I have a DVT in 2 of the deep veins, both in the Posterior Tibial veins. And the 2 deep veins on the outside of my calf are now leaking. I was a Zumba instructor before this happened. I am almost 4 months out and I still get pain when I try to dance. Can you tell me if this pain will go away and my leg will someday feel normal again?
Also, wondering if I will ever be able to wear 2 inch heels again?

We all have 24 hours in a day. How we spend these hours is important. Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do. Gonna have to work on that.Your turn. Tell me another truth.
As far as heels, I think it's the same thing. You may or may not, but no one can say for sure. I frankly had to stop wearing tall boots because they are too tight on my calf. I've not had issues with shoes, but I don't wear anything over a 2 inch heel because of an unrelated foot issue. I do though have foot swelling by the end of the day. That has never gone away for me.
