What Is Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt)?
A clot in a deep leg vein is called deep vein thrombosis. It is serious since the clot can travel to the lungs, so it requires urgent assessment, commonly with an ultrasound scan.
Care and Treatment for Deep Vein Thrombosis (Dvt)
A video visit cannot diagnose a clot. The doctor can judge how likely it is, and will arrange an urgent leg ultrasound and in-person assessment, and advise where to go. Options may include blood-thinning medicine started after the clot has been confirmed by a scan.
- Do not wait: arrange an assessment the same day
- Drink water and move around often on long journeys to lower the risk
- Do not massage or rub the painful leg
