Deep-Vein-Thrombosis

DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS

INTRODUCTION
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or venous thrombosis is a serious condition in which a blood clot forms in a vein located deep inside the body. A blood clot is a mass or clump of blood that has turned into a solid state. A blood clot can partially or completely block the flow of blood through the vein. Most cases of deep vein thrombosis occur in the lower leg, pelvis, or thigh region. However, it can occur in other parts of the body as well as in the brain, hands, liver, intestines or kidneys. In this article, we are going to explain in detail about deep vein thrombosis.

CAUSES OF DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS
Deep vein thrombosis is caused by the formation of a blood clot. A blood clot causes a blockage in the vein and prevents blood from flowing properly in the body. Blood clotting can occur due to the following reasons:

  • Inactivity or reduced mobility.
  • Some medicines.

RISK FACTORS FOR DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS
The following factors may increase your risk of developing deep vein thrombosis.

  • Age above 60 years.
  • Sitting for long periods of time, such as while flying or driving.
  • Long periods of bed rest.
  • Using birth control pills (oral contraceptives).
  • Hormone replacement therapy.
  • Heart beat stop
  • Inflammatory bowel disease.
  • Family history.

SYMPTOMS OF DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS
Deep vein thrombosis usually forms in one leg or one arm. There are different symptoms of deep vein thrombosis.

  • Pain or soreness in the leg.
  • Leg cramps.
  • Swelling in the affected leg. Rarely, swelling is seen in both legs.
  • Discoloration or redness of the skin on the leg.
  • Feeling of warmth in the affected leg.

HOW TO DIAGNOSE DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS

  • D-dimer blood test – D-dimer is a type of protein produced by blood clots. In most cases of DVT, the level of D-dimer in the blood increases.
  • Duplex ultrasound – This is a non-invasive test that uses sound waves to create images of how blood flows through the veins. This is the standard test performed to diagnose DVT.
  • Venography – Dye is injected into a large vein in the foot or ankle. To look for the presence of blood clots, an X-ray creates clear images of the veins in the legs and feet. Since this is an invasive test, it is rarely done.

TASTE HAPPINESS IN AYURVEDA

Introduction
Ayurveda is also called the science of life. It is believed that the whole universe is made up of the five Mahabhutas (five great elements) which are – sky, air, fire, water and earth. These five Mahabhutas are the sources of subtle energy in the body and hence they pervade our body in harmony with each other. Ayurveda works on this principle of these five great elements. Our health remains only on the balance of these elements in the body.

Some energy sources in every person are more than other energy sources and they determine the natural system (prakriti) of that person’s body, some of the natural defects of the body are as follows:

  2. Pitta Dosha – Excess of fire element
  3. Kapha Dosha – Excess of earth and water element
    Doshas affect a person’s body, tendencies (interest for food, digestion), mind and emotions.

For example, people of Kapha prakriti show strong physique, slow digestion, good memory power and strong emotional state, clear earth element.
