If the case is just below your knee, you can still do the knee and hip ones. Mainly, just make sure you are getting up frequently and movement around instead of just staying in one spot. Wiggling your toes several times a day should help too.

[@darkapprentice7549]

I have just recently turned 30 and I have had DVT for 5 years now and in them 5 years I have had 6 blood clots. The best advice I can give is stay active as much as possible preferably swim if you can and plenty of fluids to prevent blood clots.You can also wear made to fit stockings for the area that’s effective to improve blood flow. If you suspect you have one or your feeling pain in the suspected area and discolouration, take aspirin to thin your blood and seek medical help. They will most likely put you on blood thinning medication or if it’s more severe they will suggest surgery but surgery is not a 100% fix as it can come back.

I don't have DVT BUT do have chronic vein insufficiency disease. I had nearly 20 plus treatments which are extremely costly and three to five years later it appears as though I have had zero treatments. Supplements and herbs help as does my medical support stockings plus elevation of my legs at night. They are not fixes so am so grateful to have found these exercises to add to my walking. Not one time did any of my doctors who have performed the ablations give me exercises outside of walking regularly. SO...Thank you.

I've had leg swelling (puffiness) since 2007 when I was in my early 20s I've flown planes several times, although the last time around I started panicking bcuase of chest tightness and lower back pressure when the plane was ascending/taking off. I went to the Dr. a few times over the past years and he never really mentioned much, just to lose weight and gave me water pills. It hasn't done me harm (i.e. I work out a few times a week running and am pretty active). I'm freaking out nowadays and don't want to go on the airplane to any trips because of my (minor) experience last time around (which might have just been an anxiety attack). This video is great as I sit for 10-12 hours at a time without moving (office job) and will give these a try., especially in early mornings, since I always wake up with sweaty ankles.

To add to my stress because of my health I have been prioritised on my island to get my 1st vaccine dose next week (I'm 50) and I saw somewhere we're getting the Astrazenica vaccine, the one now causing blood clots in some people, I'm terrified.

You're welcome. Unless the DVT has moved to a more serious area (heart or lungs), the only symptoms are usually a specific area being red, warm, tender to touch, and swollen, but you don't have to have all those symptoms. Did your doctor tell you? If the doctor thinks it's possible, it's very simple to find out with an ultrasound.
