Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) explained
Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot in a deep vein, typically in the leg. Since it can move to the lungs, it requires prompt assessment, commonly with an ultrasound.

- Pain or cramp in the calf
- Sometimes no symptoms at all
- Swelling in one leg, normally the calf
- Warm, red or discoloured skin
