🩸❤️ WORLD THROMBOSIS DAY 2026 ❤️🩸

📅 October 13, 2026

Raising Awareness. Reducing Risk. Saving Lives.

Today, Occumed Ltd. joins the global community in recognizing World Thrombosis Day, raising awareness about the dangers of blood clots and the importance of early detection and prevention.

🩸 What is Thrombosis?

Thrombosis occurs when a blood clot forms inside a blood vessel, potentially restricting or blocking blood flow. Blood clots can lead to serious, life-threatening conditions such as Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE).

💙 Simple Steps to Help Reduce Your Risk:

✅ Stay active and avoid sitting for prolonged periods.

✅ Stay hydrated throughout the day.

✅ Maintain a healthy body weight.

✅ Avoid smoking.

✅ Know your risk factors, especially after surgery, hospitalization or prolonged immobility.

⚠️ Know the Warning Signs!

Be alert for unusual swelling, pain, warmth or redness in one leg. Sudden shortness of breath, chest pain or coughing up blood may indicate a pulmonary embolism and require immediate medical attention.

💙 Prevention starts with awareness!

At Occumed Ltd., we believe that education, preventive healthcare and early intervention play an important role in protecting your health and well-being.

Together, let's spread awareness, encourage healthier lifestyles and help save lives! 🌍
