First, are you using good compression? Look up Zensah.
You need to start smashing/rolling. Rumble Roller is the best for calves, but you might need to work up to the intensity.

How long ago did you have it?
If it was recent you most certainly do NOT want to start smashing and rolling because you risk breaking off what's left of the clot and then hello pulmonary embolism.
Until the clot is fully dissolved by those wonderful medicines you're now on you're going to have some degree of swelling.

DO NOT smash and roll.Besides compression hose,elevate leg above the heart occasionally throughout the day if possible.Do not cross legs when sitting.

No, no, no, no. Stay on your blood thinners. Elevate your extremity, keep using compression. Your body will dissolve the clot over the next few weeks.

It’s been about 4 years now.

When was your last ultrasound? And are you on any anticoagulants right now?
