Ive been feeling a strange pain in my thigh. it hurts on the side and its only when i touch it or sit down. i don't feel anything when i walk. i'm on birth control and have high cholesterol so I'm worried it could a potential blood clot. i also had a pain in my calf thats i passed off as a cramp but its gone now, so i'm concerned it moved. but those are my only symptoms. theres no redness or swelling anywhere. but who do i call if i think i have a clot? do i call the obgyn or my primary care?

    Put a call in to your primary care, see what they say. Clots are dangerous, so they may tell you to go directly to emergency room. In the meantime, do you take aspirin? "Baby" aspirin (low dose) is not a bad thing, and may help.
