Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Endothelial damage, increased coagulating factors or change in blood movement within the vessel commonly leads onto thrombosis. This thrombus blocks the blood vessel.
2. Due to reduced activity of your mother, blood movement would have slowed down resulting in formation of thrombus.
3. INR needs to evaluated to maintain at a higher level of 2-2.5 during anti-coagulation therapy. If she has any breathlessness, meet your doctor immediately.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
