When Should I Inject Clexane Before A Long Haul Flight
Hi,
How soon before a long haul flight do I need to inject myself with Clexane. I was told 12 hours but have read anything from 4 hrs before to immediately beforehand. I am at low-moderate risk and have a problem with my foot which is suspected complex regional pain syndrome resulting in sensitivity and easily inflamed.
