Thrombosis is a pathology in which the blood flow becomes abnormal. This often leads to unpleasant consequences, even death.
In this case, we are talking about people who are at risk.
Among the people most often susceptible to thrombosis are pregnant and postpartum women, people of full build, and cancer patients. RIA Novosti reports details with reference to phlebologist Elena Smirnova.
It is noted that men over 40, people after injuries, and women who use hormonal contraceptives are also at risk.
According to Smirnova, thrombosis can be caused by damage to the vein wall, slow blood flow, and strong blood clotting.
She noted that the development of varicose veins can be influenced by a hereditary factor. This disease occurs in approximately 10% of men and 30% of women.
