Hello, I have studied your case. Your symptoms suggest possibility of Deep vein thrombosis. Ultrasonography/color Doppler leg will help to rule pathology leading to pain and swelling like deep vein thrombosis. I will advise you to do MRI spine if Doppler is normal. We can see for any nerve compression leading to pain behind knee. Clinical examination and further investigation can be performed after consulting your doctor. If required you may need to do blood investigation for prognosis and recovery. I will advise checking your it B12 and it D3 level. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
