Chances
are that when you see some of the notes your doctor may write about
your latest visit, you may not be able to read his or her handwriting,
but you'll certainly understand little things like "blood clot in leg"
or "blood clot lower extremity". You're not a doctor, but you know
enough to understand that as soon as the notion of a blood clot is
mentioned, things just got really serious.
It's at this juncture
you need to do a few things. First, you need to be calm about what this
all means and determine whether your anxiety is based on knowledge,
understanding, or fear from misinformation. If you're like many of the
patients doctors have these days, you've likely come up with your own
diagnosis before you set foot in the office. In fact, medical experts
have diligently tried to get the right information out into the ether
because having the internet has made so many of us physicians in our own
right.
Still, blood clots are worrisome, and given some of the
numbers, especially those dealing with mortality, it makes sense that we
might get a little panicked.
Before your next doctor's visit, here are a few things to keep in mind when it comes to blood clots in your legs:
Understand The Risk Factors That Can Cause Clots
- Knowing what can cause blood clots in your legs can help you make
better choices. Some of the key risk factors include: obesity,
immobility, and family history.
Symptoms Vary Depending On Where The Location of Clot
- Though your focus is on your legs, clots travel, and treating them
depends on where they travel. Eagerly detection is a key part of
successful treatment.
Treatment Can Vary Depending on Your Health
- Medical science is truly wonderful, but it can't do it alone. You
need to be a part of the process, and this means being health-minded and
doing what you can to help lower the risk for blood clot formation.
Blood Clots Are Preventable
- Medical experts find that most people are under the impression that
blood clots, in general, are inevitable when they are, in fact,
preventable. Patients need to be active participants & not subscribe
to the idea that sometimes things happen.
Potentially Deadly
- If there were ever a reason to try to know what you can about clots
and what you can do to help prevent them, it's that they can be fatal.
This is why it's so important to have a good relationship with your
doctor and maintain regular visits so that if there is an issue, you can
develop a customized treatment plan.
No one would hold it against
you if while your doctor was giving you a synopsis of your latest
visit, all you heard was "blood clot in leg". For many, hearing this may
be all they need to believe they are officially on the way out, so to
speak. However, remember that your doctor is going to be especially
crucial to your success facing any health issue that may arise. As such,
do a little homework before your visit and in this way, you can avoid
the feeling of having no control over your health by being an active
participant in your treatment moving forward.
