Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) explained
Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot in a deep vein, usually in the leg. Since it can move to the lungs, it requires prompt assessment, commonly with an ultrasound.
How deep vein thrombosis (dvt) feels
- Warm, red or discoloured skin
- Swelling in one leg, normally the calf
- Pain or cramp in the calf
- Heaviness or tenderness along the vein
- Sometimes no symptoms at all
Causes and risk factors
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.
