Dear Bab
I think if you get a dvt that the pain is really bad so please dont worry if your leg only hurts a bit, it is probably due to tension in a leg muscle after sitting for so long. When I go on a long car journey, the next day my legs and back hurt because I am so tense when I'm a passenger, were you aware that you were tense? Take some pain killers and see if it eases it. Love n hugs. Di x

A dvt would cause large swelling & heat & redness of the swollen area.
Dont worry hun x

I am sure that you are fine. Walk today and exercise those leg muscles. Stop worrying!
