Somewhere about 2014 and 2016 I had two DVTs surgically removed. Not fun at all. Since changing my habits, haven't had any. So there is hope.

Thank you, Sir , What do you mean is that changing habits is better than surgery ?

No I had surgery twice to remove them from the back of my right upper thigh, but I also started watching my HCT and blood pressure much more closely. Which I never did before those DVTs. If a chunk breaks off from the main clot, it can be very dangerous. But a aspirin per day, up fluids, that all helped lower my chances of them happening again.

Has she ever been evaluated for Mae-Thurner syndrome? Venous compression.

Check out Inari and their removal system. You need to find a physician that treats chronic DVT as lots of doctors don’t want long, challenging cases. The older it is, the more collagen has formed.

A case like this needs to be evaluated by a hematologist. She may have a hypercoagulable syndrome and need to be on warfarin or other anti coagulation.

I had 2 DVTs. I had a factor V Leiden test and I am genetically prone to them. She needs regular bloodwork. I don't take blood thinners and haven't had a problem in 12 years after getting 2 within 1 year. I now take baby aspirin and Nattikonese everyday. If I go on long trip or on my feet several hours, I will compression socks. Do not sit on a long trip too long. Walk around and stretch out every 2 hours.

aspirin is better at preventing blood clots in arterial system such as heart attacks and strokes. For patients that have hypercoagulable disorder and thrombosis in the venous system aspirin will not be very effective.

There is studies out there that say aspirin will help prevent DVTs. Not as effective as breaking up it once formated, but it is a useful as prevention.

Just for the record, I do a few things like listed to help prevent them.

Aspirin a viable treatment for serious blood clots, study shows

A new study suggests low-dose aspirin is an effective way to prevent potentially deadly blood clots in patients who have had a previous blood clot.

In many ways, the foods that help prevent DVT are the same foods recommended for any healthy lifestyle:
