Thrombosis is a disease of the deep veins associated with their inflammation. It can affect people of any age, but women are more often affected. Unfortunately, the disease can be hidden for a long time. Although it may start to develop, the symptoms are not noticeable. The most important thing is to observe your body and examine yourself even in the event of the first minor symptoms. This is how you can beat the disease!
How does thrombosis occur? Why is it dangerous?
The essence of the disease is the formation of blood clots in the veins. They usually arise in the veins of the calf, thigh or pelvis, and very rarely in other veins throughout the body. The formation of a blood clot itself is not dangerous to health, the clot can also be dissolved. The problem arises when the clot spontaneously detaches from the vein wall and begins to travel along the body with the blood. The most dangerous situation is when a clot travels to a vein in the lung or the heart, blocking the blood vessels there. If a pulmonary artery is obstructed by a blood clot, death occurs in the next few seconds…
How does the body deal with clots?
The clot can be absorbed into the body, which is also dangerous because it damages the walls of the veins. Otherwise, the clot remains in the vein and may grow even larger. The clot can also be partially absorbed, damaging the walls of the veins and valves, causing more and smaller clots to form.
