Air travel can cause or exacerbate blood clots.
```````
Yes. Also travel in general, but air travel is more well-known. Prolly related to being sedentary for extended periods of time, especially while seated, thus compressing the venous return in your legs. The blood flow slows, pools in varicosities, and clots.

In a pressurized cabin, such as in an airplane or submarine, this may be exacerbated. Also inherited factors, or disease states, may make one more prone to clots.

This is also an issue for desk-bound office workers, over prolonged periods of sitting.

The easiest preventative is to get up and walk around at intervals.
