Our heart pumps around 10,000 liters of blood through our body every day, beating about 100,000 times. As blood flows through our blood vessels, it supplies oxygen to tissues and organs.<\/p>\n

A thrombosis is present as soon as a blood clot prevents the flow of blood in the veins<\/strong>. If a blood clot detaches from the vessel wall, a dangerous pulmonary embolism can result.<\/p>\n

If you suspect thrombosis, do not hesitate to have your symptoms examined by our experienced as well as trained doctors at the Venenzentrum am See in Feldmeilen.<\/p>\n

What is thrombosis?<\/h2>\n

Thrombosis is the partial or complete occlusion of a blood vessel<\/strong>. This causes the blood to clot<\/strong> and the platelets to form a clot<\/strong>\u00a0– also called a thrombus or blood clot. This results in a backlog. A common symptom is swelling of the leg and acute pain.<\/p>\n

Thrombosis can occur in any section of the venous system<\/a>. However, it most commonly occurs in the deep veins of the legs. If a blood clot forms in the vein, doctors refer to it as venous thrombosis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Thrombosis: causes<\/h2>\n

The development of thrombosis can have different causes. These are usually characterized by three factors, also known as the “Virchow triad:”<\/p>\n

Slowed blood flow:<\/strong> Blood flows more slowly due to abnormally dilated veins(varicose veins<\/a>) or insufficient muscle tone after surgery or in the absence of fluids.<\/p>\n

Impaired blood flow:<\/strong> The blood vessel walls show damage or deposits, for example in varicose veins.<\/p>\n

Increased tendency to clot:<\/strong> Blood clotting is increased and the blood clots more quickly. This may be due to a genetic change in blood clotting or to other systemic diseases such as cancer or autoimmune disorders.<\/p>\n

How can thrombosis occur?<\/h2>\n

It is believed that the occurrence of thrombosis is often related to events such as vascular damage, congestion due to prolonged sitting\/lying, or a change in clotting factors.<\/p>\n
