Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): Is a blood clot (congealed blood) within a vein deep within the body. Symptoms include swelling; pain; tenderness and redness, most often at the back of the leg and below the knee. It is frequently, but not always, confined to only one leg. I came across a web site that contains a wealth of detailed information on this topic. The link to the web site is called Deep Vein Thrombosis and is displayed directly below this window.
