If the redness has appeared suddenly and associated with fever or increase pain or restriction of mobility then u should be concerned and need to be evaluated for any underlying infection.if any doubt better consult your ortho surgeon.

It depends on what kind of redness it is and what are associated symptoms. If she has had fall, or If she develops pain and fever then it may be cause of worry. Otherwise it's alright.

Please make sure your doctor gave you thrombotic preventive medication?/ injection?
DVT associate with pain but some time not so Doppler study may require.
If no fever , no pain and gradually redness decrease so it will cure it self .
