| | Thrombophlebitis aHealthyAdvantage |
| | If treatment of superficial thrombophlebitis is given, it is usually limited to the application of heat or anti-inflammatory drugs, like aspirin or ibuprofen, which also help to relieve the pain. | | | In the case of deep venous thrombosis, there is more swelling than is caused by superficial thrombophlebitis, and the patient may experience muscle stiffness in the affected area. | | | Blood clots are hard and can usually be detected by a physician using palpation (massage). |

| | Thrombophlebitis |
| | If thrombophlebitis occurs in a superficial vein, your doctor may recommend self-care steps that include applying heat to the painful area, elevating the affected leg and using a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. | | | The affected vein may be near the surface of your skin (superficial thrombophlebitis) or deep within a muscle (deep vein thrombosis, or DVT). | | | Your doctor can surgically remove varicose veins that cause pain or recurrent thrombophlebitis in a procedure called varicose vein stripping. |

| | This appears to be the mechanism responsible for a 3-fold increased incidence of DVT in patients with superficial varicosities. | | | Because ultrasound can miss DVT, all patients with superficial phlebitis who also have chest symptoms (such as pain, shortness of breath, or cough) should have a chest x-ray and ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan or high-resolution contrast CT scan of the chest, even if a duplex examination fails to reveal deep vein thrombosis. | | | Medicine is a constantly changing science and not all therapies are clearly established. |

| | And when the deeper veins are involved, there is the risk a portion of the clot could break off and enter the bloodstream, where it could travel far from the injury site and cause serious problems or even death if it reaches the heart or lungs and blocks circulation there. | | | In the more serious cases, people with thrombophlebitis need to be treated with drugs to melt the clot, lessen the swelling, and treat any infection that may have developed. | | | It is a circulatory problem that develops when a blood clot slows the circulation in a vein, either right under the skin or deeper in the leg. |
