I've been taking Eliquis for a little over a month now, and my period started three days ago. I'm having a lot of accidents. At what point should I reach out to my vascular doctor? I can't walk yet because of the surgery, and I'm 34 with a blood clot that blocked blood flow to my leg for over three weeks. They're saying I might need an amputation soon. Can you help me understand what's normal and when I should be concerned?

I'm having pain in the vein on my right hand for about a month now. It starts from my arm joint and goes all the way down to my wrist. It feels like the blood circulation isn't working properly. Should I be worried about this?

I'm really worried about my mom. She had a TAH BSO surgery and about a week later, she started getting pain in her left leg. We got a Doppler test done, and it mentioned GSV varicosities. The hospital started her on blood thinner injections and she stayed there for four days before getting discharged. But she's still in a lot of pain and can't walk properly. Even when she elevates her leg while sleeping, sometimes the pain gets worse. She's on bed rest now. Can you offer any advice on how to help her manage this pain?
Your mother seems to be experiencing complications post TAH BSO surgery, specifically related to GSV varicosities in her left leg. It's good that she received blood thinner injections during her hospital stay. To help alleviate her current pain and discomfort, she can try using over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Additionally, she should continue to elevate her leg while resting, and apply cold compresses to the painful area. Compression stockings can also help improve blood flow in the legs and reduce pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it's important to follow up with her healthcare provider for further evaluation and management."
