Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)

Deep Vein Thrombosis

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot forms in a deep vein, typically in the lower leg or thigh. Signs to look for in a DVT are pain, swelling in the leg, redness and warmth with touch. The reason this condition is so serious and dangerous is because it puts you at risk of a pulmonary embolism. A pulmonary embolism can occur when the blood clot breaks off from a vein in the leg and migrates to the lungs, causing a multitude of hazardous medical complications. Common risk factors for DVT include major surgery, inactivity, pregnancy, hormone replacement, old age and obesity. Some preemptive measures you can take to avoid a DVT if you are at risk, is to walk early and frequently, calf exercises, taking aspirin and compression stockings.
