10 Blood Clot In Foot Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #6: Warmth
When there is a blood clot, it can result in an inflammation in the affected region. One of the main characteristics of inflammation is warmth. When inflammation occurs, chemicals are released from the surrounding white blood cells of the affected region to try to protect the body and correct the anomaly.
The chemicals being released cause an increased blood flow to the affected region, which results in warmth. To provide symptomatic relief, place cold packs on the affected foot as it can also help reduce pain and swelling.
