Doctor’s Orders
Pulmonary embolism is the sudden blockage of a major blood vessel (artery) in the lung, usually caused by a blood clot. In most cases, the clots are small and are not deadly, but they can damage the lung. But if the clot is large and stops blood flow to the lung, it can be deadly. Quick treatment could save your life or reduce the risk of future problems. Doctor’s have found that anti-coagulants are very effective in preventing blood clots. Protection against blood clots can also be achieved by wearing TED hose. Many doctors recommend wearing T.E.D.® Stockings after a stay in the hospital. There are other instances when T.E.D.® Stockings should be used. If you sit for long periods of time, you should wear the hose and get up every so often and stretch. When you fly is another time the hose should be worn. Long flights are very hard on our bodies and clots can form. Athletes have long been aware of how the use of compression stockings help them stay fit. Some housewives wear the stocking and say they have more energy. I think they help prevent varicose veins. Compression stockings are tight at the feet with a gradually looser fit on the leg and work to prevent blood clots and ease the pain of vein problems. Many doctors advise that their patients use compression stockings. It sounds like a good idea to me.
