Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) happens when blood clots form in certain veins in your body, usually those in the legs. A random variation in anatomy could cause left leg DVT in some patients, called May-Thurner Syndrome.
When blood flow in the arms & legs becomes inadequate to support the activities of daily life, you have peripheral artery disease. Though it’s potentially serious, it’s possible to improve your condition with lifestyle changes & medical treatment.
