Early Warning Symptoms Of Deep Vein Thrombosis

Surface Vein Distension

Everyone knows now that discolored skin is a visible sign of DVT. One of the only ones, in fact. But what's the other? It's called surface vein distention. This means blood clots are in the surface veins, making them visible from under the skin. The veins and skin'll be red, swollen, and very, very tender. DVT triggers this symptom when there are many clots, not just one! Why? Because it means it's more likely for clots to form in both places. Only one clot in a deep vein often means that's it...until something breaks off. And when a clot breaks off? Men, get ready to fight hard!
