If you drink lots of water you could get the thing breaking up and on its way to lungs, not good. If you do nothing it could get bigger. If you take herbs again you could get it to break up, aspirin same. This is a problem for big meds. Dissolve is only way. You know what to do. [/quote]

Hey I know this isn't doom related but I have received good advice here before so I though I would try again.
About 2 months ago I had an episode where my leg and feet (mainly right side) swelled up and I attributed it to sitting and salty foods i had that day. Since I have been avoiding the salt and haven't noticed much overall swelling but I was looking at my leg a bit ago and it seems like I have a decent sized bulge "2 diameter and maybe 3/4" high, slightly bruised looking. Anyways it seems like it could be a clot from what I have read.
I am 32y male, 6' 2', 189 lbs. I am in good shape, work out and eat fairly clean and feel great overall but I sit quite a bit for work in front of a computer as a 3d artist.
I don't have insurance, what would you do in my situation? Should I go to an ER or an urgent care clinic and ask if they can bill me?
Any and all advice is appreciated. Thanks for taking any time to read this or reply.
