Why I Hate Google
I recently began running - I've had a knot in my right calf for a while and running today made it worse. So I did some research on how to treat that - heat, massage etc. and came across something that said to never massage calves because the pain could be a blood clot (deep vein thrombosis) and you could loosen it and give yourself a pulmonary embolism.
So, of course, now I am freaking out. Grr. I don't really want to go to the doctor because I really think it's unlikely to be a clot, but considering we're planning to start trying for a family soon, and while pregnant the risk of DVT is greater and your medication options are fewer... Wondering if I should.
UGH.
Re: Why I Hate Google
first of all........YAAAAAH!!! can't wait to see little ditribal's in the future!
and secondly, it won't hurt to go to the doctors!
Thanks! Yeah I don't have any of the other symptoms besides what has been a knot in there for a while. I'm calming down now. I may go see the doctor to ask for advice regarding the pain after running - my arch is much lower on that side, and even though my right side is stronger my leg hurts much more than my left - so I can ask him about it then.
It's never been more of a dull ache, either, and yeah it's been around on and off for months.
I appreciate your thoughts - definitely comforting! The place I read about not massaging calves wasn't a super-reputable source either. Just some forum.
