Swelling: You can have no to little swelling. Sometimes there may only be pain. And you can also have an essentially asymptomatic DVT. Most of the time when there are symptoms the most common are pain and swelling.

DVT & swelling.: You typically would have swelling with a DVT, but it's not a guarantee.

Dvt: Possible but unlikely. The swelling occurs with a DVT due to blockage of the vein by blood clot not allowing venous blood flow return
