How long after a flight can deep vein thrombosis occur?

For some reason, I'm a little paranoid about DVT (probably because I have crummy circulation) and I'm wondering when I can relax and know that the danger has passed. My flight was last Saturday.

I'd say that you are safe.. but you said yourself that you have poor circulation. Do you know the cause? And are you on treatment? A DVT could occur anytime whether after a flight or not. I was very otherwise healthy and had a sudden stroke. Please be checked for clotting disorders. I live with one.
Best wishes to you.
