Few people think about the fact that thrombosis can become a serious threat to life, and therefore rarely pays attention to the signals warning of its development.
This is reported by “URA-Inform” with reference to Ua-novosti.
Experts emphasize that this condition can occur in any person. For example, severe swelling of the limbs with redness and pain when touched may indicate the presence of a blood clot. This symptom is usually associated with poor circulation caused by problems with the cardiovascular system, and is often caused by namely a thrombus.
In addition, experts note that with thrombosis of the leg, sudden pain may appear, which gradually intensifies. This symptom is often mistaken for a cramp, but, unlike it, the pain with thrombosis does not go away quickly and can last for several hours.
Also, a marker of a blood clot in the blood vessels of the brain can be an unexpected and intense headache that is not relieved by analgesics. In the case of pulmonary embolism, the symptoms may resemble those of acute bronchitis: severe coughing fits, difficulty taking a deep breath, and a feeling of shortness of breath.
Experts strongly recommend that if such symptoms appear, you should not delay a visit to the doctor.
