Leg blood clots: Symptoms and diagnosis | Ohio State Medical Center

The most common place outside the heart to have an artery blockage is the legs. Talal Attar, MD, FACC, an interventional cardiologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, says many individuals fail to mention the pain they are feeling in their legs, assuming it is merely due to aging. However, blockage in the legs often coincides with walking, with the pain occurring with some consistency—after the same distance walked and typically after a similar period of rest. The pain usually does not occur when sitting or lying down. Dr. Attar explains that the diagnosis, treatment and risk factors for clots in the leg and other locations outside the heart are similar to blockages associated with the heart. #OSUWexMed #legbloodclots #arteryblockage To learn more or to schedule an appointment, call 614-685-8800 or visit https://go.osu.edu/Cz7g 00:00 Introduction 00:35 What does a blood clot in your leg feel like when walking? 01:25 Using an angiogram to identify the location of the blood blockage in the leg 02:02 How do you get rid of a blood clot in your leg
