Question 1

is there an ayurvedic treatment for dvt?

Accepted Answer

Not one you want: Dvt is a serious medical issue. If you want to treat allergies or something with homeopathy - fine. Dvt needs anticoagulants, surveillance and compression stockings. Don't get cute.

Question 2

can dvt present without any complications after one week, will the swelling subside without any treatment?

Accepted Answer

Risky: Surely the mortality rate from DVT isn't 100%. Some people get DVTs and get better all on their own without treatment. But the odds are a lot better if you take the proper medication. And some people do die from complications of DVT unfortunately.

Question 3

how to reduce swelling of leg once dvt treatment starts?

Accepted Answer

Stockings: According to the national blood clot alliance, if you have had a deep vein thrombosis (dvt), it is common to have residual swelling in the leg after the initial treatment. Graduated compression stockings help increase blood flow in the legs and reduce the swelling.

Question 4

what is the prognosis and best treatment of dvt with pe?

Accepted Answer

Treatment...: The treatment of a dvt/pe is blood thinners which prevent more clot from forming while the body gets rid of the clot that is already present. There are different blood thinners, some are given orally while others are injected. The prognosis depends on several factors including the size of the clot(s), the presence of other medical problems, severity of medical condition, etiology of the clots, etc.

Question 5

what do you suggest if my mother suffuring problem of dvt from last 1 year. i need perfect treatment for her. plz tell how to cure dv?

Accepted Answer

No magic: There's no magic. She needs anticoagulation. That can take the form of warfarin or the newer drug: rivaroxaban. That's all there is to it. No magic. Sorry.

Question 6

i'm suffering swelling on my left leg, it started with dvt, dvt is cleared but swelling remains for past 7 years, is there any treatment i can do?

Accepted Answer

Compression socks: You can try some compression stockings. Also a massage therapist that specializes in lymphedema treatment may be helpful. If there is any chance of recurrent DVT see your doctor right away.

Question 7

i have been taking treatment for dvt more than 10 years. acitrom& preem16 are the drugs taking regularly.will it affect my sex life?can i gve birth?

Accepted Answer

No, yes: Acitrom is an anticoagulant similar to warfarin. You are taking because you had a blood clot at a very early age. It is unusual to have a DVT at 17 and it could be related to a genetic reason that you clot more than other people. Only you and your doctor know if you have a clotting problem that needs lifelong anticoagulation, it is possible.  You might stop the drug prior to delivery if pregnant.

Question 8

what is the treatment for blood clots in the legs (dvt)?

Accepted Answer

Blood thinners: The mainstay of treatment is always blood thinners and there are many of these with more coming out all the time. Often the clot is left alone while the body dissolves it. Sometimes when the clot is very high up and extends above the top of the leg, the clot might be removed mechanically with a clot dissolver. Once that is done, a person still needs to be on blood thinners though.

Question 9

im 38 years old had past dvt 8 yrs ago via c section, if i wanted another baby is it safe or am i high risk of dvt even with treatment?

Accepted Answer

Yes high risk: You would be at significant risk of having another thromboembolism. The risk increases with age. If your heart is set on another baby you should seek a consultation with a hematologist and/or a perinatalogist before getting pregnant. You would very likely need to be on anticoagulant therapy throughout the pregnancy and post partum period. With this approach you should do ok.

Question 10

pancreatic cancer treatment and thinner for dvt. now cough with bloody phlegm. oncologist is aware, but didn't alter treatment. is this an emergency?

Accepted Answer

It depends: When you take a blood thinner(which one are you taking??/), the doctors monitor the degree of effect on your blood. These tests guide us as to when to make dose adjustment to fine tune the blood thing to a safe yet effective level. Most likely your blood containing phlegm will clear up itself. But if it gets worse then you will need to get your blood checked even if it means going to ER(Emergency
