Hey you guys- so this might sound kind of random but.
I started training on aerial fitness ( aka circus).... I hang from the ceiling on silks as well as from a metal hoop- upside down, sometimes using only my legs- elbow to hold me.. etc.
Since doing this I pretty much am massively bruised all the time- it is of course a metal hoop digging in to crevices of your body you didn’t know existed.
Anyway- just last week after a class I have been struggling with pain in one of my legs- more to the side of the knee- and running halfway down the side of my calf (exterior)- more of like an ache/ pain /slight limp when I walk, but it’s been this way for a bout 4 days now.. it seems to be getting better but I’m still nursing it more than usual. I don’t notice any swelling or temp change-and I don’t really have any pain in the calf except for random twinges/ sensations, sometimes I’ll feel a very very slight cramp just below the knee where a bruise I sustained is.... I think they are re coming from me walking so weird and overcompensating..? When I’m sitting in a chair too- on that glute I do feel little tinges of “tiredness” running down the middle of my hamstring- so wondering if it’s more than just knee but maybe the knee pressing on sciatic nerve...
I was curious ( and wondered before when I started these workouts) can this much bruising and basically pounding/ pulling directly/ shoving metal poles into muscles cause a dvt? I’m super healthy and work out a ton...I mean I’m guessing this is stupid to even think.. but it crossed my mind... trying not to think all this is a blood clot.
