how to remove blood clot - #17726

Aadhya

I am starting to freak out a little because I think I might have a blood clot. A few days ago, I noticed my leg felt super heavy and there’s this weird swelling around my calf. Honestly, I thought maybe I just pulled a muscle or something, but then I read that heavy feeling can be a sign. Now, I’m not a doctor, but the more I look into it, the more I worry it's serious! I tried elevating my leg and using ice packs, but that didn't really help. I even googled how to remove blood clot myself, which I know sounds silly, but hey, I'm just looking for relief, right? I'm really nervous because my mom had clots when she was younger and it didn’t end well. Anyone know how to remove blood clot? I had this weird pain too, it kinda comes and goes, like a cramp but way more intense. I can't even walk comfortably! Should I be waiting to see if it gets better or is there something more I should be doing? Like, if anyone knows how to remove blood clot, please help! I really wanna avoid any major treatments if possible.
