Deep vein thrombosis or blood clots mostly affect individuals with sedentary lifestyles. But it can happen to anyone with an injury, heart problems or someone with varicose veins. These are internal blood clots that can dislodge and travel via the artery or the vein either to limbs, heart or brain. Hence it is important to avoid blood clots from forming, and once formed - from traveling to different parts of the body.

  • Deep vein thrombosis
  • bedridden or an inactive life
  • Wear comfortable clothing
  • exercises
  • long distance journey
  • Drink water
  • Follow the instructions of the doctor carefully.
