I would advice you to contact your doctor, explain to him your situation. If he feels that you are having blood clot issues, you will be called immediately to the hospital. But, its also natural to feel such sensations and pain after four weeks of cast on your broken bones. It is considered as a sign of healing nerves and bones.
