Oral estrogen has a higher risk of DVT than others. If it doesn’t go away in a day, or you have any symptoms of stroke, please treat it as an emergency. If you start coughing up blood, it’s also an emergency, but it’s probably too late.
Comment on My right foot is swollen
Miisha@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 day agoI think it’s from being on my feet the whole day, I was at a convention.
The pain is gone today, so at least there’s that.
I take estrogen HRT, so it could actually probably be DVT. Oh well.
Thanks 🩷

I’m on injections, they’re just better. And it turned out to be NOT DVT, thank fucking god. That would have made it impossible for me to get bottom surgery.
It was an infection and I have some antibiotics to nom :3

Hey, please do not fuck around with this, especially if pressing near your ankles causes an indentation that takes a few seconds to go back to normal. They can do a blood test at the ER to see if you have a clot and treat it.
