DVT- Deep vein thrombosis

Types:

Provoked- After long drive, after being bedridden for some ailment[ Fractures etc], or being on hormone injections, pregnancy.

Unprovoked: With no provoking factor. Work up needed further[ Hypercoagulopathy panel to see whether person has hereditary risk for clots]

ย 

Sometimes clots could be due to malignancy[ Especially in middle age group, then one need CT chest, abdomen and pelvis for malignancy work up]

Duration of anticoagulation is :6 months usually. Again this is your physician discretion.

My colleague had this - not sure about details but he was given 2 choices for treatmentย 

ย 

injections - costly - less recovery time

tablets - in expensive or covered by insurances - more recovery time - around 6 months on blood thinners and have to regularly visit doctor etc. he has be extra careful with sharp objects like knives while cooking etc. as blood wonโ€™t clot if there is a cut - because ofย thinners tablets.ย 
ย 

he went with tablets, avoided cutting vegetables etc. and room mate used to cut and he used to cook and clean.ย 
ย 

I remember him wearing some different type of pressure socks as wellย
