If the vein swells, the condition is called thrombophlebitis. A deep vein thrombosis can break loose and cause a serious problem in the lung, called a pulmonary embolism.sitting still for a long time can make you more likely to get a dvt. Some medicines and disorders that increase your risk for blood clots can also lead to dvts. Common symptoms are
  • warmth and tenderness over the vein
  • pain or swelling in the part of the body affected
  • skin redness
