thrombosis
We know that if the thrombus is blocked in the artery, it will cause limb ischemia and pain, and seriously lead to amputation; if it is blocked in the brain, hemiplegia and aphasia in the mild case, and coma in the severe case; if it is blocked in the heart, it will cause myocardial infarction or even death. Today I want to talk to you about a "blocking" , which is most likely to occur in middle-aged and elderly people, has a very high mortality rate, but is often the most ignored.
This "blocking" is not in the artery, the brain, or the heart , but in lower limb veins !
case
An expert consulted two or three years ago. He suddenly fainted while going to the toilet. At first, he suspected that it was cerebral infarction , but no abnormalities were found in the CT of the cranial brain. The careful nurse found that one of his legs was obviously swollen. He did B ultrasound on his legs. There was a 2 2 20 cm long thrombus in the swollen leg!
Experts introduce that lower limb thrombosis is not scary. What is scary is that the thrombus suddenly disintegrates, which flows from the calf to the thigh along the blood circulation, passes through the chest cavity to the heart, and finally pumps to the pulmonary artery, blocking the pulmonary blood vessels, causing pulmonary embolism .
and 1% of patients with will die within 1 hour after blockage and die suddenly, and doctors often have no time to rescue them.
1 Leg circumference
Just stretch out your Leg circumference and measure leg circumference to self-test whether there is a lower limb thrombus. Because the two legs with blood clots and without blood clots are often different in thickness.

back on the background reply to "thrombosis" and perform self-test of thrombosis risk
Japanese Friendship Hospital once conducted a large-scale survey - "Epidemiological Big Data on Venous Thromboembolism in the Chinese population in the past decade", which conducted a complete statistical analysis of thrombosis patients in more than 90 hospitals across the country. Ten years of research finally concluded that the causes of caused thrombosis in the lower limbs , as well as the prevention methods for people who are prone to thrombosis in .
Sitting for a long time, long-term three highs , blood circulation in the lower limbs will gradually slow down, which may lead to blood viscosity and form thrombus!
slow - sitting for a long time
Just like when the water flows slowly, it is easy to have mud, and when the blood flows slowly, it is easy to form blood clots, that is, blood clots.
meditation will slow down the blood flow rate by half. If meditation for 30 minutes, the blood flow will slow down by 3/4; if meditation for more than 1 hour, it will greatly increase the chance of thrombosis! This is also why sitting for a long time can lead to blood clots.
Recommendation: sit for half an hour and try to get up and move; secondly, maintain the correct sitting posture, straighten your waist and back, avoid hanging your waist, put your feet flat on the ground, and do not cross your legs with your legs .
coagulation——Hypercoagulant state
People with underlying diseases are prone to hypercoagulant state in their blood, which is prone to thrombosis. For example, people with chronic cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, lung disease or tumor .
loss - vascular endothelial injury
Increased blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids may all lead to vascular endothelial damage, which will increase the risk of thrombosis.
Recommendation: people with three highs should pay attention to coagulation function regularly. Go to the hospital for a coagulation function test. If there is any abnormality, be careful about the risk of thrombosis.
There is a kind of packet on the leg that indicates that the circulation is blocked and there is a thrombus! How to tell if the bag on your skin is lipoma , fibroid or thrombosis?
1 Experts teach you to use three symptoms to distinguish them:
❖Red: Red swelling and swelling mass appears in the calf , which may indicate a thrombus;
html l1 ❖ Pain: has varicose veins , and there is redness, swelling and pain, be careful of blood clots;
0 ❖ Swelling: edema caused by thrombosis, one press can rebound, 1 unilateral 1 leg circumference increases.
Zhai Zhenguo Chief physician
If you find that the skin suddenly bulges, accompanied by swelling, redness, purple, or pain, the mass grows with the venous blood vessels , which often prompts that there is a blood clot in your calf.
, and lipoma, fibroids, subcutaneous nodules, these mass usually exist or exist for a long time when they were young, so don't worry too much.
Experts suggest that most lower limb venous thrombosis do not have obvious discomfort in the early stages. Those with varicose veins, hyperglycemia , hypertension , dyslipidemia , dyslipidemia , infected or sit for a long time, pregnant women , etc. are all high-risk groups for venous thrombosis .
You can do the following two exercises in daily life to prevent thrombosis.
Move the ankle
When you sit for a long time, you can do ankle pump exercises. can do while lying or sitting, move your ankle up and down, and rotate your ankle, which can increase blood circulation in the lower limbs and prevent thrombosis.
briskly walk for 30 minutes a day
Middle-aged and elderly people can prevent blood clots by walking as the main exercise method. Walking can maintain aerobic metabolism of , enhance cardiopulmonary function, promote blood circulation throughout the body from head to toe, and prevent blood lipids from accumulating on the blood vessel wall to form thrombus.
1 Pay attention to the principle of "three five seven" when walking:
❖ "Three": Walk 3000 meters per day The above, and guarantee 30 minutes;
❖“Five”: should exercise more than 5 times a week;
❖“Seven”: After exercise, the heart rate + age should not be less than 170.
If you think the calculation is too difficult, then Remember a principle: walk briskly for 30 minutes a day until your body becomes hot or even sweats slightly, and you will achieve the exercise effect.
