Phlebitis What happens when legs swell ans become hot? |
My mum has Phlebitis her leg is painful and very hot. Why?? Phlebitis is the inflammation of a vein, usually in the legs. The inflammatory process may produce redness, warmth, pain and swelling along the vein. If it is accompanied by fever, there may be an infection. Has she had a dr check it? If it is a large area of redness an swelling, it may be cellulitis. She would need to see a dr. |
