Which creams are used to treat skin swelling and superficial thrombosis?

Asked by Male, 37 · 2 months ago

Topical heparin-based creams, such as Thrombophob Gel (containing Heparin and Benzyl nicotinate), are commonly used to treat superficial thrombosis (a blood clot in a vein near the skin's surface). These creams help break down existing clots and prevent new ones from forming. Creams or gels with anti-inflammatory drugs, such as Diclofenac gel, may also help reduce swelling and pain. Always consult a doctor before use to ensure safety and to rule out more serious conditions, like deep vein thrombosis.
