[|AI|]  Hello, such patches can be due to blood clots. This is usually superficial thrombophlebitis. Cancer predisposes to thrombosis. You can check this out either with a clinical encounter with your doctor or with an ultrasound scan which could detect the occluded vessel and the clot. If it is indeed a superficial thrombophlebitis then pain is expected sometimes moderate to severe unless inflammation has already subsided (usually a couple of weeks after the appearance of the patch). I hope I've helped! If you'd like more information, please let me know and I'll be glad to answer. Kind Regards!
