What Is Thrombosis?
5. No Symptoms
As mentioned, the patient might be showing no symptoms if the clot is not impeding the flow of blood significantly. Even when symptoms do occur, they might be quite mild in nature and possibly passed off as being something less serious. Sometimes the symptoms might not even be noticed at all.
This actually makes thrombosis more dangerous because a lot of people can have a potentially serious problem and not be aware of it. Thus, it is a good idea to keep in good shape and get regular check-ups. You should be especially careful if you fall into a category of people that are at greater risk.
