Pain
In most of the DVT cases, pain accompanies the swelling. It could either be intense pain or mild pain. The pain may increase during walking.
Colour Of The Skin
The area where blood has clotted tends to turn into pale blue or other unusual colours. Never be tempted to scratch that area if that happens.
Fever
If a person suffering from DVT also experiences fever on a regular basis, it means the issue has reached an advanced stage and medical treatment is important.
Swelling
If your legs swell, it could be a sign of DVT. The size of the affected leg seems bigger and you may feel the weight of accumulated fluids in the leg. Consulting a doctor could help you know whether the reason behind swelling is DVT or other minor issue.
Shortness Of Breath
If the person fails to breathe easily then the reason could also be a clot in the lungs which is very dangerous. Such a problem is treated as an emergency.
Cough
Excessive cough and spitting blood could also be a serious sign of DVT. Such signs indicate that the clot has reached the lungs of the person.
Weakness
The person may feel weak, dizzy and the legs fail to effortlessly move the body for long.
Chest Pain
When the clot occurs in the lungs, the person may also experience intense pain in the chest. Breathing becomes very difficult.
Warmth
