🎙️BLOOD CLOT ♿️

BLOOD CLOT

A blood clot forms when blood changes from a liquid into a thick, gel-like mass inside a blood vessel. Clotting is a normal process that helps prevent excessive bleeding, but a clot that develops inside a vein or artery can restrict blood flow and become dangerous. Common warning signs may include swelling, pain, tenderness, warmth, or redness in an affected area.

Blood clots can sometimes travel to the lungs, heart, or brain and cause life-threatening complications. Knowing the risk factors and recognizing warning signs early can make a difference. If symptoms such as sudden chest pain, difficulty breathing, coughing up blood, or sudden weakness occur, seek emergency medical attention immediately.
