These signs of thrombosis cannot be ignored

From a clinical perspective, thrombosis is extremely harmful, and its signs must be discovered in advance in order to completely curb it. Common signs of blood clots include unilateral drooling while sleeping, dizziness, swelling of the limbs, stuffy pain in the chest, etc. In this case, you must do a good job of prevention, participate in more physical activities, increase high-density lipoprotein, drink a glass of water before going to bed, etc.

1. Precursors of thrombosis

1. Drooling on one side while sleeping

Especially for the elderly, if they always drool on one side when sleeping, they should be careful whether it is caused by blood clots. Because blood clots can cause local muscle dysfunction in the pharynx.

2. Dizziness

Dizziness is the most typical symptom of cerebral thrombosis. Especially when I wake up in the morning. Especially for patients with hypertension, if they experience dizziness more than five times in just two days, or feel dizzy after working hard or taking a shower, they should pay attention to whether it is caused by blood clots.

3. Swelling of the limbs

This is one of the typical symptoms of deep vein thrombosis. Because blood clots can block blood flow in the legs, swelling can occur over time. Although leg swelling is common, you should still be vigilant, especially when the thigh swells rapidly and becomes painful.

4. Chest tightness and pain

Long-term lack of exercise can easily lead to blood clots forming in the veins. Furthermore, the blood clot may break off and travel with the bloodstream into the lungs. If the blood clots are large or numerous, they will get stuck in the branches or trunk of the pulmonary artery, causing large-area pulmonary infarction, chest tightness, chest pain, cough, obstructed breathing and other discomforts, which can be life-threatening in severe cases.

2. Methods to prevent blood clots

1. Participate in sports activities. Exercise can promote blood circulation, thin the blood and reduce its viscosity. Such as Tai Chi, gymnastics, dancing, cycling, jogging, swimming, sword dancing, etc.

2. Increase high-density lipoprotein. It does not deposit on the blood vessel walls, but can also promote the dissolution of very low density lipoprotein that has been deposited on the blood vessel walls, thereby smoothing blood flow and preventing arteriosclerosis. Exercise and dietary adjustment can increase high-density lipoprotein. You can also eat onions, garlic, peppers, green beans, spinach, cucumbers, carrots, apples, grapes, etc. regularly.

3. Drug prevention. Taking a small amount of aspirin each time as directed by a doctor can acetylate platelet cyclooxygenase, inactivate it, and prevent thrombosis. However, taking large doses can inhibit the production of prostaglandin I2, accelerate blood coagulation, and form thrombi. Therefore, it is not advisable to take large doses. Compound Danshen Tablets have the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, making blood flow smoothly. Take three tablets three times a day.

4. Drinking a glass of boiled water before going to bed at night can prevent blood clots. You should also develop a habit of drinking water. Drinking 1000-1200 ml of water a day is beneficial to blood circulation, reduces blood viscosity, and is very beneficial for preventing blood clots.

5. Eat more onions, kelp, cabbage, deep-sea fish oil, black fungus, leeks, lettuce, etc., and drink appropriate amounts of vinegar and tea.
