Vascular surgeon Omar Abu-Bakr in an interview Daily Express named the five most “common” symptoms of thrombosis.
First of all, you need to pay attention to edema, which can occur in the leg, ankle or foot. The main thing is not to confuse it with other causes of the disease – for example, with insect bites.
Dilated, painful veins may also indicate thrombosis. They can start in the lower leg, and then spread to all legs.
In addition, you should pay attention to the temperature of the legs – in the place where there is probably a blood clot in the vessels, you can feel the heat.
Another symptom is a change in skin color around the affected area. It is worth sounding the alarm if it has become paler with a reddish or bluish tint, writes InoSMI .
