Doctor talks about factor that increases risk of blood clots
An expert spoke about an important factor that increases the risk of blood clots.
Blood that is too thick should be a cause for concern, shared general practitioner Marina Berezhnaya.
The main danger of this condition is the disruption of the normal ratio of blood cells to the volume of its liquid component, reports Gazeta.Ru .
In this case, the risk of blood clots increases significantly.
Berezhnaya said that thrombosis is often recorded not only in large arteries, but also in small ones.
Microthrombi can disrupt the oxygen supply to almost all tissues and organs.
In addition, thick blood affects general well-being. In such a case, a person has a headache, and copes worse with work or study.
The doctor advises to monitor the water balance. This is very important for the normal state of the blood.
There is also a laboratory test called D-dimer, which allows you to assess the thickness of your blood.
But she warned that only a specialist can give an adequate assessment of any tests.
