Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Support Group
Deep-vein thrombosis, also known as deep-venous thrombosis or DVT, is the formation of a blood clot ("thrombus") in a deep vein. It can be caused by something preventing blood from circulating or clotting normally. Join the support group if you are coping with DVT and find others who are going through the same challenges.

hello all
so I am a month out from my DVT diagnosis and I was feeling pretty good but I think I may have spent a little too much time on my feet the last few days.
Now my ankle is swollen again any tips? How long does this swelling come and go for?

For me it never really stopped all together but I’d say the first 2-3 months I always had ankle and foot swelling if I was on my feet too much.

We all have 24 hours in a day. How we spend these hours is important. Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do. Gonna have to work on that.Your turn. Tell me another truth.
