: An exam will be needed as thrombosis cannot be ruled in or out on description only. While typical for thrombosis, pain and swelling are symptoms commonly seen in a variety of other conditions from trauma to infections. Best would be to have your leg examined timely at your doc’s office or a local urgent care.
