February is Heart Month - My Tip for You!! ❤️

With February being heart month, I thought it was important to at least give you one tip for your cardiovascular health. Whenever traveling long distances, it is important to stop every 2-3 hours and stretch or walk for a bit to keep your circulation moving. Sitting in a car for long periods of time with your legs bent in the same position can lead to the development of a DVT or a blood clot in your calf.
The symptoms are: Pain in the calf area, swelling and heat from the clot, and redness. Seek medical attention if you are concerned you have developed this. If it becomes dislodged it can travel to your heart and lungs.
I hope you found this helpful!!
