Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] My husband had what could be called a Charlie horse last night in his sleep, left lower leg calf. He is over weight, diabetes and smokes, today the leg is very painful, has a problem walking. Hurts to touch, he is on a lot of heart medicine as has had stents placed several years ago. I am concerned about a DVT? .
[|AI|]  Lower limb swelling has many causes such as heart failure, varicose veins, vasculitis as complication of diabetes. Lab investigations should be done like serum uric acid, CBC, echocardiogram and lipid profile and coagulation profile. DVT is common risk factor of heart failure and diabetes. Taking acetyl salicylic acid 75 mg once daily as prophylaxis and Marian tablets as warfarin anticoagulant is effective for your case at now.
