A member asked:
How long can it take for a 71 year old male to recover from pulmonary embolism?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Also DVT and edema takes a while . Clots may resorb or stabilize over six months. Large pe with shock and near death can be slow to recover. Once anticoagulated and edema resolved and good breathing and oxygenation, several more months. If small, caught and treated early, faster recovery.
