I didn't know this could happen, so I am passing the information on.
 
This week my friend was working outside on his boat and didn't drink enough water. He went to the hospital with pain in his leg. It appears that dehydration causes blood vessels to narrow and makes blood thicker; therefore, blood clots form more easily.
 
He is ok but this is a valuable lesson to be shared.  Please remember to stay hydrated!
