Why does my left calf keep getting swollen and why does my chest feel tight and sore?
I feel, you are required to undergo Doppler test for the calf veins to rule out whether you have Deep Vein Thrombosis. Also you should ask for routine blood test for eosinophil count and a midnight thick peripheral smear for filarial worms. DVT can give rise to intermittent cough, wheeze and tightness in the chest, so is the filarial worms and eosinophilia. CT scan for Lung arteries and other battery of test may help come to a diagnosis. An emperical course for filarial worms may help.
