Dealing with DVT

DVT is something that can be treated but observation is important there is so much we all need to learn and raising the affected leg is a must when at rest. Support stockings are important and I make sure to remove at night. This site Health Unlocked is wonderful, we need to be better informed especially at a time when Doctors and Nurses are so overworked.
