A member asked:
My sister recently had a vaginal hysterectomy about 2 weeks ago. her vein where the drip was inserted is now swollen and sore, could this be clotting?

Cellulitis: It is more likely cellulitis from the IV site. If there are red streaks present in the swelling, have her see hare surgeon immediately as these types of infections can spread rapidly up the arm if not evaluated and properly treated.
