Deep Vein Thrombosis
Deep vein thrombosis or DVT is a serious health issue which happens when blood clots form in veins located deep inside the body. It often forms in your lower leg or thigh, but it could also develop in other parts of the body. Some other names include post-thrombotic syndrome or thromboembolism. Since it is a serious condition, make sure to consult your doctor as soon as possible when you notice some common symptoms. Some treatment options will focus on preventing the blood clots from growing. Additionally, treatments might help avoid pulmonary embolism and reduce the risks of more clots. [6]
