Symptoms of blood clots in the feet

Thrombosis is a very stubborn and difficult to cure disease that can occur in any part of the human body. Thrombosis refers to the phenomenon that a blood vessel is blocked, resulting in blood circulation obstruction. Some people will have blood clots in their feet, which is generally caused by insufficient blood supply to the body, which prevents blood from reaching the feet smoothly. In severe cases, it can also cause foot ulcers. So, what are the symptoms of blood clots in the feet?

Blood clots on the feet are a relatively dangerous disease. Generally speaking, thrombolysis is not recommended for large blood clots. If the blood clot breaks off, it will travel into the lungs with the blood, causing pulmonary embolism, with the risk of suffocation and sudden death. Therefore, we must be particularly cautious in treating this aspect.

Blood clots in the feet are very harmful to patients. They can cause ulcers and, in severe cases, may require amputation. Therefore, patients with blood clots in the feet should take timely and effective treatment in the early stages of the disease under the guidance of a doctor.

The main symptoms of blood clots in the feet

Patients with blood clots in the feet have obvious swelling on one side of the limb, or asymmetrical swelling of both legs. When the patient presses the skin on the front of the calf with his fingers, the skin sinks and returns to normal after 20 minutes. This is a pitting edema. Blood clots in the feet are often accompanied by severe pain. As the disease worsens, the pain becomes stronger, the limb ischemia and lower limb swelling become more obvious, and in severe cases, the limbs will become necrotic. Patients with blood clots in the feet may experience fever.

Blood clots in the feet should be treated with caution

Blood clots in the feet are usually treated with drugs such as anticoagulants, and surgical treatment can be performed if necessary. The patient's family should give help to the patient in daily life, such as intermittent massage of the patient's lower limbs to promote blood circulation, and let the patient exercise appropriately to facilitate muscle contraction, thereby promoting blood return to the lower limbs and helping to alleviate the condition.

Blood clots on the feet need to be treated with caution and in a timely manner, and active cooperation with the doctor's treatment is required. Usually the main treatment method is a combination of Chinese and Western medicine, such as intravascular perfusion, combined arteriovenous medication, to achieve the effect of thrombolysis in a short time.
