What are the Common Causes of Blood Clot Injuries?
Blood clots often occur when improper preventative measures are imposed during medical care and treatment. Blood clotting can be simply avoided using a blood anticoagulant during the surgery, or providing anti-deep vein thrombosis stockings. If, during your medical care, you we’re not provided with these mandatory care products and have suffered an injury as a result, you may be entitled to compensation: contact Tylers Solicitors now to learn more.
Sometimes, blood clots occur when risk factors have not been administered by your medical care staff. For example if you’ve suffered a leg injury and you’re legs plastered in a cast, and haven’t been educated in proper care procedures, suffering from blood clot injuries as a result, there’s a chance you’d be entitled compensation for injuries of this nature.
Please be aware, blood clot injuries and circumstances differ from person to person, if you’re circumstances are different, discuss them with your leading medical negligence professional solicitors today and let us, here at Tylers Solicitors support you in making a claim and receiving the compensation you rightly deserve.
What Circumstances are Likely to Result in Blood Clot Injuries?
When suffering from a blood clot injury, the injuries have a tendency to be a result of the following:
- Pelvic surgery
- Leg injuries
- Plaster casts
- Long distance travel
- Childbirth
How Much Compensation Can I Claim for My Blood Clot Injury?
The amount of compensation to claim is decided according to the nature and severity of the problems caused in regard to your blood clot injury. The court also considers your lost earnings and direct expenses when calculating the amount of compensation you will receive.
If your mobility is permanently impaired putting a detrimental effect on your ability to earn a living and effecting your potential future earnings than the amount of compensation will again, be calculated against this detrimental factor.
What are the Symptoms of a Blood Cloth Injury?
Blood clots can be a serious condition carrying some clearly noticeable symptoms which include:
- Swelling of the affected area
- Pain
- Tenderness
- Discolouring of the skin (usually turning blue or red in colour)
- Fainting
- Dizziness
- Shortness of breath (coming on suddenly or developing gradually)

How Can I Make a Blood Clot Injury Compensation Claim?
The first priority in case of such an injury is to ensure your safety and a proper blood flow by getting an immediate treatment to prevent further damage. Once your health is ensured, you can begin with the process of making a compensation claim.
You need to gather supporting evidence including eyewitness accounts, official reports or statements from medical professionals attesting your poor treatment.
It’s advisable that you try to record the names of the professionals who treated you along with the incident time, so this information can be cross-referenced if need be. Our clinical negligence specialist solicitors work together with independent medical experts in order to accurately assess your case. We will pursue a compensation claim recognising your suffering as well as its effects on your social, personal and professional life.
How Long Do I Have to Make a Blood Clot Injury Compensation Claim?
There is a 3-year time limit for making a claim after becoming aware of the clinical negligence you’ve suffered. However, if the victim is under 18, the three-year limit applies from their 18th birthday. Also, if the injured person suffers from any mental illness, they’re eligible to make a claim up to three years following their recovery from this particular illness.
According to the decision of the judge, if a claim merits it, then the rules may be waived on time limits and the judge can allow the case to proceed. This is dependent on mitigating circumstances and should not be relied upon as there’s no guarantee you will be permitted extra time to file your compensation complaint.
