I'm a 20 year old male and I've been worrying that I have Deep Vein Thrombosis. For the last day or so, I have been having these dull pains in my legs. They don't happen very often and I'm not having trouble walking and I don't feel any of these pains when I'm standing and my legs aren't swelling. I'm really worried about this, but my health anxiety has been so bad over the last few months, and I keep worrying about so many things that I probably won't be able to convince my parents to take me to the emergency room.

EDIT: Since I first posted this, I've been having the same dull pains in my side, my arm and my fingers. There is also a slight pain below my ears occasionally. I've been suffering from HA for the last three months now and I heard that pains like these might be caused by anxiety but I haven't seen that much about it.
