I have blood clots in my thigh. I exercise daily. I must have a procedure for P.A.D Made three years ago, it stopped. I wanted to stop Coumadin. It appears on both legs. I was afraid that the clot formation again, but I was told that it is more a cosmetic procedure. I wear long shorts, because the bumps are so remarkable. My mother had these bumps too. She could not set store on them because of pain. I was always told they were fat cells and will appear if you are overweight. I' m not overweight at the moment. What are your suggestions.
