leg pain blood clot :: Article Creator What To Know About A Blood Clot In The Leg When a blood clot develops in the leg, doctors refer to it as deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Deep veins carry blood back to the heart from the extremities. DVT may cause pain, warmth, and tenderness. Prompt treatment is necessary to prevent complications. DVT has several potential causes, including prolonged immobility (such as during long flights or bed rest), surgery, injury to the veins, certain medical conditions, hormonal factors, and inherited blood clotting disorders. If a person does not receive treatment for a blood clot in the leg, it can pose serious risks. The blood clot can dislodge from the vein and travel through the bloodstream to the lungs, potentially causing a life threatening condition known as a pulmonary embolism. This article looks at the treatment, aftercare, and prevention of blood clots in the leg. A blood clot in the leg ca

vte medical meaning :: Article Creator Women With Pregnancy-associated Stroke At Higher Risk Of MI, VTE: JAMA France: Stroke survivors who are females would have a unique set of long-term cardiovascular (CV) risks if they had a pregnancy-associated stroke, says a recent study published in JAMA Network Open. The cohort study revealed that women with pregnancy-associated stroke had lower risks of overall CV events, ischemic stroke, and death and similar risks of cerebral venous thrombosis and intracerebral haemorrhage compared to non–pregnancy-associated stroke. However, there was a greater risk of acute coronary syndrome with ST-segment elevation and venous thromboembolism. Previous studies have shown that women with pregnancy-associated stroke might have different risks of stroke recurrence, including during subsequent pregnancies and other CV events due to pregnancy-specific stroke risk factors, such as preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, or

symptoms of renal artery blockage :: Article Creator What Is Renal Colic? Symptoms And Relief Renal colic is pain that occurs due to a stone in the urinary tract. The urinary tract includes the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra. Treatments may include medication and surgical procedures. Stones can develop anywhere in the urinary tract, and they can vary significantly in size. Most stones occur due to a buildup of minerals or other substances, such as uric acid, which stick together in the urine and create a hard mass. There are several treatment options for urinary stones. However, as many stones pass without surgery, the management of renal colic is often the primary concern during treatment. In this article, we explain how to recognize renal colic, what causes it, and ways to treat it. The symptoms of renal colic vary depending on the size of the stone and its location in the urinary tract. Some small stones caus

coronary vein thrombosis :: Article Creator What To Avoid If You Have Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Those with DVT or taking blood-thinning medications for DVT may need to avoid certain activities, medications, foods, or lifestyle factors. People will need to avoid certain factors that may increase the risk of blood clots in the veins or interfere with blood thinners. This article looks at what people will need to avoid with DVT. It also discusses helpful tips and when to see a doctor. A 2022 systematic review notes that exercise is safe for those with DVT. Additionally, a 2023 study says exercise for acute DVT does not increase the risk of experiencing a pulmonary embolism and can help to improve a person's symptoms. However, the National Blood Clot Alliance advises people to avoid high-risk sports, such as contact sports, which may result in injury.
