What Is Thrombophlebitis?
6. Are There Ways To Avoid Thrombophlebitis?
You may be able to avoid thrombophlebitis by taking a few preventative measures. Allow time for frequent breaks while on road trips so you can stretch your legs and get your blood flowing properly. If you’re on an airplane, you may wish to take regular trips to the bathroom so you aren’t sitting the entire time.
Other ways to prevent vein inflammation include drinking plenty of water and other fluids (non-alcoholic) to avoid becoming dehydrated. You should also try to take walks regularly if you work at an office job that requires you to sit for hours at a time.
