Summer breaks are coming soon to many lucky people. For some, this means staying at home and relaxing, for others it means traveling to visit family and friends or to explore new places.

DVTs are blood clots that form in deep veins in your body – most commonly in the legs, but they could happen anywhere a deep vein exists.
