What should i do if i was diagnosed with dvt and i think it is getting worse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Get follow up.: Dvt can worsen if left untreated and has the potential for serious complications such as pulmonary embolism and death. If there is any question of having a DVT or of DVT worsening then you should have a venous ultrasound and see a vein specialist or medical doctor. Do not delay in having a follow up evaluation.
