Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Explained
A clot in a deep leg vein is called deep vein thrombosis. Since it can move to the lungs, it requires prompt assessment, commonly with an ultrasound.
Typical Symptoms
- Swelling in one leg, usually the calf
- Heaviness or tenderness along the vein
- Pain or cramp in the calf
- Warm, red or discoloured skin
What Can Cause Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt)
Long periods without moving, such as long flights, bus journeys or bed rest, recent surgery or injury, pregnancy, hormone medicines, dehydration, smoking and a history of clots can all raise the risk.
Getting Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt) Treated in Laleli
Video cannot confirm a clot. The physician assesses the likelihood, organises an urgent leg ultrasound and in-person examination, and tells you where to go. Typical choices are blood-thinning medicine started after the clot has been confirmed by a scan.
- Do not massage or rub the painful leg
- Drink water and move around commonly on long journeys to lower the risk
