ANSWER:
Phlebitis generally occurs on the skin surface of veins and thrombosis affects the large blood vessels of the veins of legs.
EXPLANATION:
Phlebitis occurs due to certain inflammation in the veins of legs and sometimes in the arms also. The thrombus takes place because of certain blood clots in veins that causes pain and irritation.
Phlebitis may occur both on the surface of the vain and on deep veins. Superficial phlebitis or phlebitis that occur on skin surface usually doesn’t cause any serious problem and cures very fast.
Whereas, the thrombophlebitis affects the deep large blood vessels of veins causing blood clots. It may spread to the lungs.
