Hi, im a 16yr old male. I was sitting as a desk for 3-4 hours today and i stood up and realized that my calfs where very tight. I am convincing my self that the righ it more swollen than the left. Its 3 hours later and my mind is playing tricks on me i think. My right leg feels hot and stiff. Should i do somthing about it now or do you think there is nothing wrong. It is 2am atm. im worried i might have DVT(Deep vein Thrombosis) and help will be great. THanks

What you have is a leg that went to sleep. You have as much chance of having DVT as a comet hitting you.

Nope, no DVT in my opinion.

DVT is extremely painful. When in the leg, you cannot even put your foot to the floor to walk, the limb swells greatly and there is a distinct colour change.

It does sound way more like you have a bad cramp or muscle ache from sitting for so long, nothing scary.
