Does this sound like a blood clot?
My friend showed me a bruise on their inner bicep that looked as of it ran along a vein, they said they woke up and it was hurting and that's when they noticed it, there was also i small knot around the inside of the elbow bend area, well tonight it looks worse because now multiple veins are red and swollen like bright red. I told them it looks like either an infection in the vein or a clot and that they need to go get the doctor to check it out. They said they are going to the doc first thing in the morning. Judging by my description does this sound like a clot?

No. You can't SEE a blood clot and they occur in arteries, not superficial veins. What you've described sounds like a hematoma from a blood draw or IV drug abuse.
