What Is Thrombophlebitis?
3. What Are Symptoms of Thrombophlebitis?
There are a variety of symptoms associated with thrombophlebitis. Some people with the condition may experience all of these symptoms, while others may experience only some. The most common symptoms associated with superficial thrombophlebitis include redness and swelling at the affected site, as well as warmth and pain in the affected area.
Deep vein thrombosis, which is related to but is not the same as thrombophlebitis, usually presents similar symptoms, including pain and swelling in the affected area. It’s generally easier to recognize superficial thrombophlebitis because this condition affects veins closer to the surface of the skin.
