Standard treatment with blood-thinning medication lowers the risk of complications, but some patients still develop long-term damage to the veins. Inflammation is thought to play an important role in these complications.\n\nThis study will evaluate whether adding colchicine, an anti-inflammatory medication already used for other conditions, to standard anticoagulant therapy can improve outcomes in patients with acute DVT. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either colchicine or a placebo, in addition to usual blood-thinning treatment, and will be followed for one year.\n\nThe main goal of the study is to determine whether colchicine reduces the risk of developing long-term vein problems after DVT.

One of the common manifestations of CHF is fluid overload and swelling of the legs. Diuretics or \"water pills\" are usually the treatment for fluid overload and leg swelling; however, in some patients' diuretics are no longer effective or the effectiveness is limited due to poor kidney function. The presence of chronic swelling of the legs could potentially damage the veins; additionally, it could lead to chronic skin changes in the legs and in the worst cases to a leg ulcer. Compression stockings are used in patients with venous diseases to reduce the swelling of the legs and improve mobility and quality of life. Although, there is a theoretical risk that compression stockings might push the fluid of the legs back to the heart and lungs worsening the CHF. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of knee-high tight socks (tight stockings with strong compression) vs. knee-high soft socks (soft stockings with minimum compression) are effective in preventing swelling and skin changes and safe in patients with CHF. During the first visit (in-person) a routine medical test will be performed including blood tests, review of the medication doses, current weight, an ultrasound images of the veins, (venous reflux ultrasound), questions about health status and a brief physical exam.
