What Is May Thurner Syndrome?
5. Deep Vein Thrombosis Symptoms
The symptoms of deep vein thrombosis are likely to be similar to the symptoms of May Thurner syndrome. They are also likely to be more severe, however. As before, pain in the leg is a common symptom and the leg is also likely to become considerably swollen as blood is unable to flow freely out of the leg.
The patient’s veins in their leg are going to be larger, larger even than in cases of May Thurner syndrome alone. The leg can feel heavy and it can be difficult for the patient to walk. Pelvic congestion syndrome may also develop in some women, and this can cause pain in the pelvic area.
