Thrombosis Awareness

Thrombosis awareness refers to understanding the risks and signs of blood clots, which can form in veins or arteries. These clots can lead to serious health issues such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism, heart attacks, or strokes. Awareness aims to educate people about risk factors like prolonged immobility, certain medical conditions, and lifestyle choices. Recognizing symptoms like swelling, pain, or shortness of breath can lead to timely medical attention. Promoting awareness helps prevent complications and encourages individuals to seek care if they suspect a blood clot.
