I suppose you will be OK , other than the pain and discomfort , just be watchful of any new pain or changes that might be a clot forming.

Many have gone years in the diagnosis merry go around & especially when work comp is concerned.

If a possible clot arises go to ER.

wow, yep those activities are pretty physically stressful , try to find other hobbies and modify what you can for now.

be gentle with your self - slow easy stretches - don't force positions or movements - it can make your body tighten & fight the release

Like clawing up?
That could be a nerve problem.
