Antibacterial mouth rinses also can help reduce bacteria. In addition, odor-causing bacteria and food particles can cause bad breath if dentures are not properly cleaned. Smoking or chewing tobacco-based products also can cause bad breath, stain teeth, reduce your ability to taste foods, and irritate your gums.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot (thrombus) in a deep vein, usually in the legs. Clots can form in superficial veins and in deep veins. Blood clots with inflammation in superficial veins (called superficial thrombophlebitis or phlebitis) rarely cause serious problems. But clots in deep veins (deep vein thrombosis) require immediate medical care.
That can lead to many complications, including heart failure. People most at risk for DVT are those who've been on prolonged bed rest or otherwise unable to move their legs frequently, such as hospital patients, stroke victims and people with spinal cord injuries. Frequent movement of the leg muscles helps keep blood flowing through the veins.
