Factors that increase the likelihood of developing thrombosis:
Remaining seated or lying down for prolonged periods
Recent surgeries
Smoking
Obesity
Pregnancy or use of hormonal contraceptives
Diseases such as cancer, diabetes, or heart problems
Family history
Recommendations to prevent thrombosis
Taking simple measures can significantly reduce the risk:
Stay active: avoid sitting for long periods of time without changing position.
Hydrate well: water improves blood flow.
Exercise regularly: even walking 30 minutes a day helps.
Avoid smoking: tobacco hardens arteries and promotes blood clot formation.
Control your body weight: being overweight is a major risk factor.
Consult your doctor if you have a family history or are on hormone therapy.
Conclusion
Thrombosis can be prevented by adopting healthy lifestyle habits and paying attention to the symptoms. Being alert and acting early makes all the difference. Prevention and education are key to protecting your vascular health.
