usually the doctor will tell you to take aspirin once-twice a day for several weeks after surgery to prevent blood clots.

Blood clots in the leg cause swelling, pain, increased warmth and redness. The classic symptoms of such blood clots are:

  • Swelling
  • Tenderness or pain over a vein
  • Redness
  • Sharp, shooting pain when the foot is being flexed
  • Warm sensation
  • Dull, aching throb in the calves, especially when the person is walking.
  • Widening or dilation of the surface veins.
