Overview
This is a condition that is characteristic of blood clots in the veins. In this resource we shall extensively discuss the symptoms of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
DVT is caused by blood clots in the deep veins of your body. Usually, this happens in the veins in the legs. Because of the blood clot formation there’s a discoloration of the skin as well as pain and swelling in the leg. It is also possible to have DVT without any symptoms surfacing. A blood clot is a solid pile of blood in your veins. Blood clots in the vein are caused by a number of things. Damage to blood vessels can account for the formation of blood clots in the deep vain. Also, if the blood vessels are damaged or injured during a surgical operation, blood clots are formed. Usually, you may be required to make no movements (bed rest) after certain surgical operations. This bed rest can increase the likelihood model of blood clots in the vein. The reasons are far-fetched, normally when we stay on a spot for too long (sitting [1], standing, etc.), blood can accumulate there, and a spot can form.
