Deep vein thrombosis occurs when blood clots form, also known as thrombus, forming one or more deep veins in the body, especially the legs.
Symptoms include:
– Swelling and pain in one leg, rarely in both legs
– Reddish, warm skin around the affected area
– Veins are swollen, hard to touch and painful
In some cases, in more severe cases, a piece of clot may break and go to the lungs, causing chest pain and shortness of breath. It is also called pulmonary embolism or PE.
