Deep Veins are those deep inside the leg as opposed to Superficial Veins which are closer to the skin’s surface. A thrombus is a clot in the blood. Once a clot is formed, it may travel through the veins and reach the lungs. This can result in a fatal pulmonary embolism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClot formation is likely if the blood is stagnant.
