"מבחן חמש השניות": סימני אי-ספיקת לב שלא הכרתם

@drsermedmezher “It’s Like This After Every Shift” #why Source: @autismjesus Pitting oedema in the legs is when pressing on swollen skin leaves an indentation that lingers for a few seconds. In some cases, it can be relatively innocent — for example, after standing for long periods, sitting on long flights, or during pregnancy, when fluid naturally collects in the lower limbs. These situations are often temporary and improve with rest, elevation, or gentle movement. However, pitting oedema can also be a sign of something more serious. It may point to underlying heart failure, kidney disease, or liver problems, all of which interfere with the body’s ability to manage fluid balance. It can also signal issues like deep vein thrombosis or chronic venous insufficiency. Because the causes range from harmless to potentially life-threatening, persistent or unexplained leg swelling is something that should be checked by a doctor to rule out more serious underlying conditions. #legs #swelling #health ♬ Natural Emotions - Muspace Lofi
