I was diagnosed with a venus sinus thrombosis and i'm taking coumadin (warfarin). before that i ordered a custom corset. can i wear it at least to try it on?

Unknown risk: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is the presence of a blood clot in the veins that drain blood from the brain. There are many conditions that can predispose to this condition, which can be crippling and even life threatening. The effect of wearing a corset has been debated in the literature. Some feel that it can cause changes in the function of internal organs, others do not. So why do it?
