Viral illness: Your signs & sxs suggest either an autoimmune process or viral inoculation. Automimmune disease promote "clotting" such as lupus. But the "lumps" could be urticaria from an allergic reaction. Seek an md to assist as you may need a Medrol (methylprednisolone) dose pack (steroids). Last point: do these lesions itch or not itch? An important point in dx.

Phlebitis: Phlebitis is clot, however it is clot in the smaller superficial veins that are not worrisome for life-threatening pulmonary emboli the way clot in the larger deeper vein are. Like the common cold they tend to run there course and resolve within 3-6 weeks.
