Gentle Exercise

for Phlebitis

Gentle walking and movement to promote circulation and venous return. Prolonged immobility worsens phlebitis.

How it works

Movement activates the calf muscle pump promoting venous return and preventing further venous stasis.

What to watch for

Gentle movement only - avoid vigorous exercise in acute phase. Walking is generally recommended over complete rest.
