The doctor called the signs of thrombosis that can not be ignored

Vascular surgeon Vinicius Bertholdi listed symptoms that may indicate deep vein thrombosis. According to him, the disease most often affects the lower limbs and requires timely treatment. Terra writes about it.

One of the characteristic signs, the specialist called a sudden swelling of one leg. Pain should also be alerted, especially in the area of the calf, which can become stronger when walking. Another possible symptom is an unusual feeling of warmth in the affected limb.

The doctor also recommended paying attention to redness of the skin, a feeling of heaviness or pressure in the leg, and the appearance of previously invisible superficial veins. At the same time, the listed signs in themselves do not allow a diagnosis. For this, a medical examination is necessary.

Especially dangerous Bertholdi called sudden shortness of breath and chest pain. Such symptoms can occur with pulmonary embolism - a complication in which part of the clot enters the lung vessels. In such a situation, urgent medical care is required.
