Cardiologists emphasize the importance of taking breaks during long car rides to prevent the development of blood clots, which can be life-threatening. Sitting for extended periods disrupts blood flow, leading to the formation of clots in the deep veins of the legs. These clots can potentially travel to the lungs and cause a pulmonary embolism. Everyone, regardless of age or health condition, should plan to get out of the car and move around every one to two hours during trips lasting at least four hours. Staying hydrated, wearing compression socks, and performing leg exercises in the car can also help reduce the risk of blood clots.
