Common Triggers
Long periods of sitting still on flights, buses or bed rest, recent surgery or injury, pregnancy, hormone medicines, dehydration, smoking and a history of clots all raise the risk.
Understanding Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt)
Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot in a deep vein, typically in the leg. Since it can move to the lungs, it requires prompt assessment, commonly with an ultrasound.
How Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt) Feels
- Pain or cramp in the calf
- Swelling in one leg, typically the calf
- Warm, red or discoloured skin
- Sometimes no symptoms at all
Care and Treatment for Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt)
A video visit cannot diagnose a clot. The doctor judges how likely it is, arranges an urgent leg ultrasound and in-person assessment, and advises where to go. Treatment can involve blood-thinning medicine started after the clot has been confirmed by a scan.
- Drink water and move around frequently on long journeys to lower the risk
- Do not wait: arrange an assessment the same day
- Tell the doctor about recent flights, surgery or immobility
- Do not massage or rub the painful leg
