<human>: A friend of mine had surgery on her left foot yesterday morning. For the last few hours she says her left leg feels hot . No swelling, no redness, but it feels hot. She s been advised to go back to the ER if she feels worse. What could this be? DVT?
<bot>: Hi, As your friend underwent surgery for the foot, post surgery there might be some fresh burning sensation which is common. Still your friend can have a word with a surgeon who has operated. As you mentioned surgery was done just yesterday.  With simple medications things will be fine. It is for sure not a DVT. DVT might not occur suddenly after the surgery, and this might be just because of tight bandage. Getting it showed it always recommended Rather avoiding it. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Jay In Chat Doctor.
