I have been diagnosed with factor V Leiden and anticardiolipen antibodies. They only time this has been an issue has been with pregnancy or surgery. Within 24 hrs I had a very painful raised red and hot to touch area come up on my knee. I absolutely hate going to the Dr or hospital unless its a must. What to do?
Hello, this is a condition called anti phospholipid syn Chat Doctor. And you need to be taking medication for blood thinning.in case this is occurring on the knee it could be arthritis, or simply an infection. You need to see a doctor who can work it out.
