Does DVT Develop With Frequent Use Of Saunas?
Are there risks to develop or worsen DVTs (and subsequently pulmonary embolism) with frequent use of saunas --- especially if one cycles from rounds of extreme heat to jumping into a cold pool of water as is often the case in sauna practices in Northern Europe?

Hello dear Greetings welcome to HealthcareMagic
Regarding your request of whether saunas can result into deep venous thrombosis I am suggesting No it has not been reported from any studies done so far rather it will cause a heat stroke and severe skin eruption when the temperature of the saunas because high
I hope this helps Regards
