When traveling, you have to sit for more than 4 hours, especially on airplanes, doubling the risk of blood clots forming in a vein, which can be fatal. The World Health Organization (WHO) has just issued this warning.
A special study conducted by the WHO on the dangers of traveling by plane confirms that 'short-term passengers are also at high risk.' According to WHO, this risk not disappear completely after a flight that lasted for about 4 weeks.
Venous thromboembolism occurs when a blood clot develops in a deep vein in the leg, then moves in the body and goes up to the lungs, clogging the blood pomegranate. When the blood clot reaches the lungs, the patient feels pain in the chest and has a respiratory disorder. If left untreated, death can occur.
However, according to WHO, the absolute risk of venous thromboembolism is relatively low: about 1 in 6,000 people. But obese passengers, with a height of 1.90m or less than 1.60m, have a family history of blood disorders and women taking birth control pills are more likely to be victims of venous thromboembolism.
WHO recommends that long-distance travelers should operate leg muscles by spinning their ankles, as well as avoiding wearing too tight clothing and not taking sedatives and drinking alcohol.
