3. Preventing the clot from breaking loose and traveling to the lungs.

Management for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) in India are: 

Blood thinners: 

These medicines are also known as anticoagulants, and help  prevent blood clots from getting bigger. Blood thinners reduce the risk of developing further clotting.

Blood thinners may be taken by mouth or given by an injection under the skin. There are various types of blood-thinning drugs used to treat DVT. Together, the patient and the doctor will discuss their benefits and risks to determine the best one for the patient.

They might need to take blood thinner pills for three months or longer. It’s essential to take them exactly as prescribed to prevent serious side effects.

People who take a blood thinner are called jantoven need regular blood tests to monitor levels of the drug in their body. Certain blood-thinning medications can cause harm so they’re not prescribed during pregnancy.

Thrombolytics:

These drugs are given for more-serious types of PE or DVT, or if other medications aren’t working.

Clot busters are given through a tube which is placed directly into the clot. They sometimes cause serious bleeding, so they’re generally used for people with severe blood clots.

Filters

If someone can’t take medicines to thin their blood, a filter may be placed into a large vein the vena cava in the belly (abdomen). A vena cava filter helps to prevent clots that break loose from lodging in the lungs.

Compression stockings

These special knee socks can help to prevent blood from pooling in the legs. These help reduce leg swelling. Wear them on the legs from the feet to about the level of the knees. For DVT, patients typically wear these stockings during the day for a few years, if possible.
