Leg pain seems musculoskeletal but to rule out DVT. D dimer is borderline high.
Need to repeat D dimer and consult doctor.

Yeah this is serious and he should be immediately started treatment for the same so that things can be with held as early as possible.
My two main concern one is the leg pain And second is the redness of the eye Since he has used steroid during his treatment part you should be extra cautious.
