If you develop thrombosis, you might become cognizant to the condition when the affected area begins to show signs of discoloration. Typically, the affected area becomes pinkish-red, and the color gradually intensifies to a deep maroon. In some cases, parts of the discolored skin may also turn blue. This pigmentation occurs in situations where thrombosis has begun affecting blood circulation very intensely. You must get help from a medical provider if this is the case to prevent further aggravation of the condition. Once treatment begins, the discoloration can be expected to disappear within two or three days.
