Blood clots can cause swelling in the veins of your neck or arms, but this is rare. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition in which you develop a blood clot in a vein deep in your body. This is one of the two types of thrombophlebitis.
Signs and symptoms of excessive blood clotting depend on where the clots form. 1  A blood clot in the heart or lungs could include symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and upper body discomfort in the arms, back, neck, or jaw, suggesting a heart attack or pulmonary embolism (PE).
