Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a heart patient, and I am on Plavix and Aspirin. I have multiple blockages in my legs. Is it possible for a clot to form in legs, and then it moves to the heart, causing a heart attack when I soak my legs in hot water to relieve my restless leg syndrome? Similarly, can multiple clots in the heart be a cause for my restless leg syndrome that occurs in my right leg alone?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I assume that you have blockages in arteries, and if blockages are in arteries, then they will not migrate to the heart. Instead, there will be a pain while walking, and if it is severe, it may lead to gangrene. If blockages are in veins, then they will migrate to the heart and lungs. As you have multiple clots, then we can suspect that there might be some damage to your nerves, causing the symptoms. I suggest taking a tablet, Neurobion (vitamin B complex supplements), and Pregabalin.
