What Is Thrombophlebitis?
10. What Is the Outcome for Thrombophlebitis?
Typically, the prognosis for thrombophlebitis is good, as long as the condition is superficial. In fact, if you follow your doctor’s orders and take care of the affected area without diving back into sports or heavy physical activities, you could fully recover in as little as one to two weeks.
If an infection develops, recovery will likely take longer. Additionally, if you have deep vein thrombosis, you should expect your recovery time to be lengthier than otherwise.
