What is deep vein thrombosis (dvt)?
Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot in a deep vein, normally in the leg. Since it can move to the lungs, it requires prompt assessment, commonly with an ultrasound.
Why deep vein thrombosis (dvt) happens
Staying still for long periods (flights, coach trips, bed rest), recent surgery or injury, pregnancy, hormonal medicines, dehydration, smoking and previous clots increase the likelihood.
Local tips for deep vein thrombosis (dvt) in Goynuk
Goynuk is built for beach days, and the strong sun, salty water and shared buffets behind them explain most of the health problems travellers report. Close by are Beldibi, Old Town, Kaleici, which share the same medical services. After a long flight to the coast, a swollen calf should never be put down to heat alone. Get it checked the same day.
