10 Symptoms Of Thrombophlebitis
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #5: Warmth
We are warm-blooded animals, which means that we are able to generate our own body heat. We achieve this by generating energy from our food, and this helps to heat the rest of the body, partly with help from our warm blood as it radiates throughout our body.
If any part, or all, of our body is warmer than usual, however, then it is an indicator that something might be wrong. In cases of thrombophlebitis, the patient is likely to find that the affected area is going to be quite warm to the touch. This symptom should not be a problem in itself but is a sign of an underlying problem that should be seen to.
