Hey guys I’m currently 21 weeks pregnant. I just seem to have pulled my leg muscle trying to get out of bed this morning and it hurts bad! I can’t walk properly it’s so painful. It’s definitely a pulled muscle right? I mean, I’m 99% sure it is??

Now stupidly searching on google and scared about dvt even though I’m pretty sure it’s not that? There’s no redness, both calves are the same size and I don’t smoke or anything like that? It feels like a pulled muscle so I don’t need to get it checked out right? This is crazy. Yesterday I was in triage for reduced movements and a swab and today I get this.

Does it feel hot/ is it red? They are other signs of Dvt.
Also, did you feel it happen? If so it would most likely be a pulled muscle. I started getting leg cramp overnight at 21 weeks and in the morning it felt like I had pulled a muscle

It doesn’t feel hot or red but it’s painful. And I think I felt it happen even though I was kinda half asleep at that time? The pain’s up till my bum now. I think I should go in and get it checked out?

I was completely fine at 8am, it just happened when I woke up :(

To me it sounds like cramp but go in if you will feel more relaxed doing that
