Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot forms in a deep vein, usually in the legs, which can obstruct blood flow. This can lead to pain, swelling, and redness in the affected area. If the clot dislodges and travels to the lungs, it can cause a pulmonary embolism, a potentially life-threatening condition. Additionally, DVT may result in long-term complications such as post-thrombotic syndrome, which can cause chronic pain and swelling.
