Understanding Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt)
Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot in a deep vein, mostly in the leg. It is serious since the clot can travel to the lungs, so it needs urgent assessment, commonly with an ultrasound scan.
Why Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt) Happens
Staying still for long periods (flights, coach trips, bed rest), recent surgery or injury, pregnancy, hormonal medicines, dehydration, smoking and previous clots increase the likelihood.
Preventing Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt)
On long journeys move your legs, walk around regularly, stay hydrated and wear compression socks if your doctor recommends them.
How Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt) Is Treated
A video visit cannot diagnose a clot. The doctor assesses the likelihood, organises an urgent leg ultrasound and in-person examination, and tells you where to go. Treatment can involve blood-thinning medicine started after the clot has been confirmed by a scan.
- Do not massage or rub the painful leg
- Tell the doctor about recent flights, surgery or immobility
- Do not wait: arrange an assessment the same day
